The Sentinel

Here’s hoping the Secret Service keeps closer tabs on its business and agents than is depicted in this assassination thriller. Michael Douglas stars as a veteran agent who’s carrying on with a certain prominent Washington lady and ends up on the run as key suspect in a plot to kill the president. Emmy-winner Kiefer Sutherland, Eva Longoria and Kim Basinger co-star. The DVD includes deleted scenes and an alternate ending that adds a silly coda to the romance in which Douglas’ character has been involved. Director Clark Johnson and screenwriter George Nolfi offer commentary, and the disc has two featurettes on the Secret Service and the job of protecting the president (AP)
