Movie Reviews of Sharpe's Challenge
Movie Review: A challenge indeed!
Summary: 5 Stars
As someone completely ignorant of the Sharpe series I was impressed with Sharpe's Challenge and look forward to the rest. the script is excellent and it has been masterfully produced. I had expected action and was not dissapointed; the swordfighting alone is spectacular. The partnership between Sharpe and Patrick is moving, particularly when the bond of friendship is put to the ultimate test. Captain Dodd is all a villain ought to be, handsome but ruthless. The tension between and within the English and Indian cultures is well balanced and realistically portrayed.All in all, a gem, sure to become another classic. Well done.Movie Review: Sharpe is Back
Summary: 5 Stars
A great addition to the Sharpe Series of DVDs and Books. Fans of Bernard Cornwell's hero Richard Sharpe will greatly enjoy this new exploit. Based on three novels(Sharpe's Tiger, Sharpe's Triumph and Sharpe's Fortress) by Bernard Cornwell,it places Sharpe in India shortly after the Napoleonic Wars. He looking for his good friend Patrick Harper and putting down an insurrection at the same time. Its great fun.Movie Review: Sean Bean is Richard Sharpe!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you liked the other shows you will love this one. If you have read the books this movie takes a little out of several different books changes a few names and places and dates, but blends together wonderfuly. Sean Bean is Richard Sharpe. Daragh O Malley is great as Harper. Toby Stephens has proved to be a great villian in James Bond and in Sharpes Challenge he is even better!Movie Review: I loved it!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you like Sharpe, you'll love this! It was great to get a new story after all this time and Sean Bean sliped back into Sharpes character like he'd never been away! The story line is action packed and there's the usual love interest for Sharpe, it fills all the requirements that followers of the series have grown to expect!
So like I said, I LOVED IT!!
Movie Review: Sharpe Returns
Summary: 5 Stars
I really love the Sharpe Series. And this current movie is no exception but, for that it is based on a novel that chronologicaly preceeds the other sharpe stories. I would have prefered a fresh original story. Nevertheless, Sean Bean delivers his usual great performance. I look forward to more dramatizations of this great historical fiction character.
