Frankly, I'm tired of people liking foreign films simply because they are foreign. La Sentinelle is a french film that tells a dull tale of international espionage. The plot is interesting enough, but the pace of the film is so slow and tedious that it is a great challenge to even last through an entire screening of this mess. One of the immediate problems that I had was the treatment of the severed head throughout the film. When the main character opens his suitcase, he discovers a shriveled head inside. One would think that this would cause some sort of disturbed reaction, however, the acting implied that the head just as well might have been a sandwich. The bottom line is that just because a film is different doesn't make it any more artistic or any better. This was a poorly done cinematic mess which deserves no further comment.
