Review of The Sentinel (2006) by Pj P — 02 Jun 2009
After watching Harrison Ford embarrass himself in Firewall, I was hesitant to approach a modern actioner starring Michael Douglas. I shouldn't have been. It's a slick, stylish and smart flick, and a lot better than what I was expecting.
There's a lot less "Fugitive"-style action than the trailers suggest, and a few logic gaffs in the script, but I liked the insider-angle to Secret Service work that the first 20-odd minutes provided.
An exciting good-time, and nothing more, with a solid cast on top of their games. For what it is, it works.
