[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Bravo Two Zero on Video / DVD??

Posted: 10/3/2001 1:36:23 PM EDT

I just got done reading the story Bravo Two Zero (great book!). Looking on the web it seems that there was a movie made with the author (Andy McNab) giving technical assistance during the production. The movie was BBC made I believe and starred british actor Sean Bean.
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of this movie? I can't seem to locate it through conventional outlets. I would, of course, need a format that would work in my American VCR or DVD player.
Thanks,
Sean.

I have a copy. Send me a tape and a few bucks for shipping and I'll make you one.

Great movie, by the way. I'll email you my address.

I did a search for it awhile ago. The only place I could find a copy was in Britian. Try e-mailing Pallidin Press and see if they can get you a copy that will work State side.

The problem is that DVD is Regionally Coded, so you'll need a DVD player that ignores Region codes or it won't play. Most computer DVD drives will work, but most US home units won't.

I know I dug this one up from deep within. But I was searching Amazon.com and I found they are selling the movie "Bravo Two Zero" on DVD starting December 18th for like $25 I already pre ordered it. I want to see this movie so bad after readin the book. I heard a good thing about Amazon it that sometime they send out the item like that early so you may very well have it on or I even heard of people getting the movie before the release date. So Sheck it out If anyone is interested in ordering it let me know I think I know away to get %10 off of it for you.

Another must read is "The one that got away" by Chris Ryan, another of McNabbs team. Another story of amazing perseverance.

It was a made for TV movie, and is painfully slow in many parts.

I got my copy on Ebay last year.

If you haven't read the book make sure that you do before watching the movie. It helps to explain a lot that is left out of the movie. The book really helps to get insight as to what McNab was thinking and why he was answering interrogation the way that he was.

Death_By_AR15 was kind enough to send me a VHS copy and I'm glad that I had read the book before watching the movie.

Good film. Did you get the one with extra footage on tactical training by SDF SF guys.

He is a great writer. I got all his books and managed to get a sign HB of Firewall.

Got my DVD from Amazon. watched the movie tonight and it was great. It was not some farce of a movie like "Three Kings". "Bravo Two Zero" had feelings, emotions and a great plot. Just wanted to pass my two cents on.
