Rating:  - these movies are better if you don't read the book
I have read the Sharpe series up until Sharpe's Company, the book before this and have seen three other movies. It is by far advisable to not read the book before you see the movies. Nothing will be spoiled since there is very little taken from the books.
The movie on it's own is far fetched and makes huge jumps in story line but I loved it! Now I am reading the book. Sames my nerves from getting too frayed.
Rating: - Excellent entertainment!
In spite of a lifelong fascination with history, I have never had much interest in the Napoleanic era, or the Napoleanic Wars--until I started watching this series.

Rating: - Sharpe and Hakeswill finally come to terms in "Sharpe's Enemy"
The British TV adaptation of Bernard Cornwell's colossal Richard Sharpe series of novels spins its fourth installment with "Sharpe's Enemy."

In the novels, Richard Sharpe (Sean Bean) begins his military career in India under the tyrannical thumb of Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill (Pete Postlethwait). ... Read More
Rating:  - Give this one a miss!
I like Sean Bean and I liked the other Sharpe's adventures I've seen, but this one was utterly cringe-worthy. Clunky dialogue, dodgy plot, and to top it all off it has spoiled my opinion of Sharpe as having any honour at all! This episode is laddish without being fun and I regret my purchase.
Rating: - A very heroic adventure
The _Sharpe_ stories take place in a time and location that many American won't know well, during England's epic battles against Napolean (mostly those in Spain), but it's very easy to recognize many of the classic elements of stories we often love. The hero, Richard Sharpe, is a tough, honest, self-made man who gains the respect of honorable, even endearing soldiers and the love of many a lady. In this particular episode, Sharpe yet again outfights and outsmarts both the French and the evil, arrogent English ... Read More
