Leave your thoughts about Shadow Conspiracy.
| USA TodayMike ClarkSome political junkies have an inordinate yen for movies that hop-skip around familiar Washington, D.C., locales and inside the bowels of a sinister White House. Members of this club may get some ephemeral amusement out of Shadow Conspiracy. |
| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesIf you can't figure out all of the bad guys within the first ten minutes of the film, then you have not been getting your daily adult requirement of mysteries. |
| TV GuideMaitland McDonaghCorpses pile up, dreadful secrets are uncovered, and Bishop eventually gets to the bottom of things, a full hour after the least attentive viewer will have figured out who's behind it all. |
| SPLICEDWireRob BlackwelderThe rest of the film is Sheen, playing a George Stephanopoulos-styled presidential adviser, being chased around Washington D.C. by an assassin who is a terrible shot and has no speaking lines. |
| Philadelphia City PaperCynthia FuchsIs it just me or is Charlie Sheen the kiss of death for anything other than Hot Shots? |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonWhen Charlie Sheen and Donald Sutherland appear in any movie, you should be wary. Their contracts seem to demand nothing but corny formula. |
| Boxoffice MagazineKaren AchenbachSheen is a handsome and resourceful actor, but not enough so to win in this conspiracy of shadows over substance. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksThe audience is guaranteed to laugh at all the wrong moments. |

| Chicago ReaderLisa AlspectorBland, interminable chase scenes take up so much of the story -- the hackneyed plot doesn't need much exposition -- that the sheer repetitiveness begins to amaze you. |
