"A magnificent full set."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

As a former member of the British armed forces for 24 years, I can vouch for the fact that this set shows exactly how life was in the days of the British Grenadier, in the days when a so-called “Gentleman”, who bought his commission, was anything but a gentleman. An excellent series.

Reviews for the Sharpe series

“A rousing adventure with spirit, Sharpe's Rifles is particularly suited to fans of historical drama, British television, and those looking for a change of pace from Hollywood fare” DVD Verdict (sharpe's rifles)

“Anyone who enjoys period pieces would be doing themselves a favor by following this series. The acting is terrific and the story compelling. It's enough to make me want to pick up the novels upon which these are based as I've been told the film adaptations are quite faithful to the original Cornwell stories.” epinions.com (sharpe's company)

“It's good to see that British TV, unlike its American counterpart, occasionally presents entertainment programming that can be enjoyed by people with IQ's higher than a potted plant. I have only seen four episodes, but I was impressed. It's a good series about the uneasy alliances in the late stages of the Napoleonic Wars. It features excellent character development, interesting historical trivia, and a very charismatic lead performance by Sean Bean…” scoopy.com (sharpe's enemy)

" terrific battles, intense rivalries, and good swordplay." epinions.com (sharpe's battle)

“I highly recommend this series, and Sharpe's Eagle in particular to anyone who likes period pieces, especially those with swashbuckling heroes, who always somehow manage to deliver on a promise made to a dying friend.” epinions.com (sharpe's eagle)

“There's no lack of swordplay, battles and fights in Sharpe's Sword and they are excellent.” epinions.com (sharpe's sword)

“..though its protagonists now may not be as fit as they were back in the day, Sharpe's Challenge is my favorite of the bunch. Sweeping, well-acted and kick-ass, the film delivers all the swashbuckling snark that followers of the films (and books) have come to expect.” DVD Verdict (sharpe's cha­llenge)

“it's a fitting end to the series…The battle scenes in Sharpe's Waterloo are among the best in the series.” epinions.com (sharpe's waterloo)

“The writing is top notch (and apparently very faithful to the novel) and the story moves along quite well with no lagging. The acting is terrific. For anyone who is interested in these types of period pieces, I highly recommend it.” epinions.com (sharpe's enemy)

“One of the better offerings in the series of British tele-films, Sharpe's Siege builds a nice bit of suspense in a terrific story.” (sharpe's siege)

“a production that seemed less like a TV movie and more like a full-fledged feature experience. Though there aren't any big castle sieges as in Sharpe's Challenge, Sharpe's Peril still manages to bring a hefty dose of action and set-pieces, highlighted by a handful of battles and plenty of sword-fighting and shotgunning.An­choring all the tomfoolery are Bean and O'Malley, two guys so intimate with the characters they're portraying, the performances come easy. Sharpe and Harper's chummy relationship is right up there with the gold standard bromance set by Verenus and Pollo from Rome. Like V and P, when they're called to spring into action and kick their enemies in the balls, they can bring the pain…” DVD Verdict (sharpe's peril)

“Anyone who likes historical fiction would love this series..” epinions.com (sharpe's mission)
