      A A small budget, huge impression! iconic show! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/29/22 Full Review Audience Member The fourth of the Sharpe adaptations, this is somewhat unusual in that the events of this (and the novel) do not take place around any particular historical event (such as the siege of Badajoz, or the battle of Talavera, or of Waterloo ...). Rather, this is based around a more generic defence scenario: while the novel calls it the Defence of Portugal, it's really only a pass into the country. This is also the first to introduce the French spymaster Pierre Ducos, and is also the one in which Sharpe is (once again) bereaved. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member With a nod to Arthur Conan Doyle's "Marechal Millefleurs"and praise for Hurley and Postlethwaite I'd say Sam has it right. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Sean Bean has only friends. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member And here it isâ¦.the end of Hakeswill. The book itself was very awesome and the film is just as good, but it is a bittersweet ending as both Teresa, who was a brilliant character for Sharpe, and Obadiah Hakeswill, the best antagonist for Sharpe, are both killed off. The death of Teresa is sad and upsetting, and the death of Hakeswill is also brilliantly done. With the story of a army of deserters to be battled, it offers a different perspective, and works brilliantly. Top class film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I just can't really get into this series. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
