Critics Consensus: The Sentinel starts off well enough but quickly wears thin with too many plot holes and conventional action sequences.

Reviews

Herald Sun (Australia)

Leigh Paatsch

An enjoyably frenzied pulp thriller, not unlike the scripts for an entire season of TV's 24 being fed through a shredder over at The West Wing.

A bad movie to the core thanks to a disastrous script. [Full Review in Spanish]

Michael Douglas goes through the motions of playing an action man in this plodding and pedestrian political suspense thriller.

Spirituality & Practice

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

An underwhelming political thriller.

Decent thriller with crisp performances. Teens OK.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that this movie includes several high-octane action sequences, with multiple murders by shooting, knifing, and explosion. The violence can be aggressive and several bodies appear bloodied (including a man with his throat cut). Two characters engage in an adulterous affair, revealed when a third party takes high-tech surveillance photos. Some mild sexual references and language.
