| User ReviewJon BI've seen almost all of this series, however i don't want to have 12 reviews...so i will let this one be for all of the sharpe movies. The differ from the Bernard Cornwell books, but all in all they are very entertaining. Sean Bean and Daragh O'Malley do a great job. Be warned that they are made for the BBC, so it doesn't have the greatest effects and none of the battles are large scale, but they are still well done. |

| User ReviewAndrea San excellant start of the series, some excellant battles and overall just fantastic, a must watch |
| User ReviewPrivate U"I never chorrrrrse ya." I think the Chosen Few were a little more than 8 budget-constraint men in the book. But there was no Sean Bean in the book so fuck you, book. |
| User ReviewHalfpint LI could watch sean bean back to back all day in this roll. "King George commands and we obey over the hills and far away" |
| User ReviewShamsi MThe sexiest. Ever. Sean Bean as Richard Sharpe, leader of Wellington's 95th Rifles, makes the ladies' bodics pop open just by looking at them. |
| User ReviewTom MRadically good movie! One of the only movies based off of a book that was ridiculously magnificent! Shut up and see it! All ages admitted! |
| User ReviewKyle JOne of my favourite book series turned into a lively and well done tv-movie series. Originally saw this on PBS |
| User ReviewAimee ASpending far too much time watching UK TV History of late due to this fella. |
| User ReviewAndrea EBrilliant historical fiction with a strong ensemble. Don't get attached to any child soldiers who may be introduced, though! |
