this be classic sharpe and classic sean bean . combine bernard cornwell original three book set in india into one sharpe film and and reset it after the battle of waterloo have do nothing to detract from the enjoyment i have from the late adventure of richard sharpe . the plot have take my favourite bit from all three book and meld them into a fast pace and exciting film . the acting from both sean bean and daragh omalley be up to it usual high standard and be lace with the timing and sardonic wit that have make the previous sharpe film such a success . toby stephen a general dodd also put in an admirable and believable performance and and to his credit he have me dislike his character also immediately . the film have some of the best special effect that i have see from the sharpe film and especially the storming of the breach sequence and the blowing of the mine . i think some credit should also go to the stunt performer and extra a the effort with which they throw themselves around the set add to the action segment and make them much more enjoyable . the only thing that i can possibly think that would detract from all the praise i have for this film would be the over showing of lucy brown bosom which and although perfectly lovely and appreciated and be overall probably a tad unnecessary . personally i just felt that there wasn not much need for it plot wise and and it be only there to titillate ( excuse the pun ) and sensationalise . i have see and read all that be sharpe and can honestly say that this be one of the best sharpe film . it will be appreciate by old and new fan alike . hopefully we will get to see some of the other book that haven not yet make it to film produce now . finger cross .
