Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Uriah43 In a futuristic setting automated drones which were initially created to help humans have rebelled and are now attempting to destroy all of mankind. The only chance available to the human race are electronically enhanced soldiers who are patched into the computerized rifle they carry with an eye cap implant. The computerization is so advanced that it becomes a part of the soldier and communicates verbally with him. However, the drones are even more advanced and after several hard-fought battles only one soldier by the name of "Tallis" (Don Wilson) is left alive. As luck would have it though he manages to rescue an injured woman (played by Katee Sackhoff) who belongs to a "para-military" group desperately attempting to destroy a drone communication center. Although she is nowhere near as capable as Tallis she at least gives him a long-lost sense of purpose and they soon team up to fight the numerically superior drone army by themselves. Anyway, rather than detail any more of the film and possibly spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it I will just say that while there was plenty of action it could have been much better if it had had a better script. Be that as it may, those who enjoy apocalyptic sci-fi films might find something to like but even so it's still not a top-of-the-line movie by any means. That said I have to rate it as slightly below average.

TheLittleSongbird I do have to agree with the previous commentators that The Last Sentinal was a bad movie. Is it completely irredeemable? No, the movie does start off decently, Katee Sackhoff is very sexy and her shower scene is the highlight of the film and Keith David makes the most of a role that could have been much more. Unfortunately, The Last Sentinal is a low-budget movie and it really does show with the camera work and editing all over the place. The music is generic with nothing memorable sticking out, while the sound effects frequently overbears everything. Apart from Sackhoff and David, the acting is very flat, and that is including Don Wilson, whose acting consists of lumbering round with one scowling facial expression. They are not helped by their bland cardboard-cutout characters that have no development to them whatsoever and they are often made to look stupid especially the Drone Police. The dialogue is an overload of cheese and triteness, while the action and martial arts sequences were unimaginative with no sense of life, playing too much like a cheap video-game at times, and the pace was dull. The storytelling is full of genre clichés, and is little more than lazy and derivative and an excuse to string action-sequences together. Overall, derivative, dull and cheaply made, not without redeeming qualities but a bad movie and not recommended. 3/10 Bethany Cox

rlange-3 The initial 20-30 minutes of the movie was fair entertainment on a limited budget. But the contrast with the last 30 minutes was ridiculous. In the first part, an elite mostly human super-soldier platoon is crushed by the bad guys in stark black suits. They are barely able to pick a few off here and there. In the last part, one super-soldier is able to decimate the ranks of the supposedly elite new model of drone.There are all the usual problems of the bad guys behaving stupidly while supposedly being elite, guns that never run out of ammo, explosives that just happen to be planted to take out only the baddies etc etc etc. After a while this gets tedious. But there is nothing much else to fall back on. Nobody we develop real feelings about. Sackhoff does her gamey best to breath some life into this but it's not really enough.There are flashes of entertainment but overall the movie is low wattage and prosaic.

ljay107 Like a lot of people, the only reason I wanted to watch this movie was because I'm a fan of Katee Sackhoff.I'm confused at some of the comments raving about this movie. Were you watching the same film? I couldn't even bring myself to give it 1 star.I can't see anything good about it other than Katee Sackhoff. Every time she was in a scene with Don Wilson she ate him alive! I know he's supposed to be some kind of super soldier but come on! R2-D2 has more personality.The effects were very 'student film' - you can do better quality in After Effects. I'm not going to mention the script, or lack there of. And the direction of the camera was pitiful - I feel sorry for the DOP.All in all this 'movie' should only be viewed in film schools as what not to do.
