Sharpe`s Company & Enemy are just another two of Bernard Cornwell`s fantastic and Thrilling masterpieces. This dvd gives the viewer a real insight in to 19th century life, and as in his books the Sharpe chronicles are in fact based on what really happened, the names of some of the characters are altered, but all the scenery and clothing etc, are what they would have been like in the 19th Century. Save yourself the time of reading the books, sit down with a nice drink and enjoy Sean Bean playing the hero and defeating the Spanish! Also on eBay you have the benefit of purchasing the double dvd for a fraction of the cost of what you would pay in the high street shops.
Sharpe's Company:Sean Bean returns as maverick British rifleman Richard Sharpe in this romantic adventure set during the bloody conflicts of 19th century Napoleonic Spain. Ordered to lay siege to the French stronghold - the walled city of Badajos - Sharpe is torn between overcoming the enemy, and rescuing his lover - the beautiful guerilla fighter Teresa (Assumpta Serna) - now trapped in the city on a secret mission spying for the British. There is one thing Sharpe hasn't counted on - the evil presence of his old enemy Hakeswill, who is determined to stop him at all costs... Sharpe's Enemy:Sharpe first has to do battle with a gang of deserters led by the evil renagade Sergreant Hakeswill (Pete Postlethwaite). Hakeswill uses hostages - inlcuding Sharpe's old flame the beautiful Isabella (Elizabeth Hurley) - as innocent pawns in his wicked game to win a ransom. This is only the beginning of the problems facing Sharpe. A far greater threat is on the horizon. One where failure would mean the end of the war for the Allied armies.....Read full review
i rely enjoyed the action and tha fact that the setting of dvd id good i am going to get the rest of the set
Not the best of the Sharpe canon but it does contain Elizabeth Hurley's finest cinematic moment when she volunteers to reveal her bosom to Major Sharpe .
