Catching Lightning

The first 3 episodes were rather good and interesting (even if overly focused on Murray's MMA career more than the core story).

The fourth episode, however, was tedious to say the least. It was as if the director gave the microphone to a room filled with everyone and then left and let them pass it around until they all were exhausted. I swear it went on for 45 minutes after the end of the story. Just comment after comment, and some got more than one shot with the mic. Tedious.

One might think one would like to hear how every single person who had anything to do with this story (and a couple others) feel about its outcome, but the final episode would prove one wrong (or, at least, teach one to be careful what you wish for).

This is by far the best sports documentary I've ever seen, compelling viewing at its finest. My hubby made me watch this as his an old school MMA fan so he loved seeing Chuck Liddell - Pat Miletich & the greatest middleweight ever Anderson silva on this show. I watched it reluctantly because I HATE sports documentaries in general but from the get go this one had us both hooked from beginning to end. We laughed at some of the peoples stories- recounting in detail actual events and towards the end it got quite emotional. We both thoroughly enjoyed it and my hubby has actually watched it again lol.

Can't believe his still serving time in prison. His paid the price for what he done just don't get how he was sentenced to so long. No one was hurt, people make mistakes.

Thoughtless mistakes on weelittle evidence that brought this case to a merely closed end, even though there are strains left out there...

an uncle scrooge's moneybinge in 2006 kent,england got tapped for 59 mill pounds sterling, by seemingly a crashgang of proffesional robbers, some were of course and some were just connected, but the sting of the story goes toward the marshall art fighting environments of southeast london, and mr lee, a strong spangling star on the mma and ufc heaven and well known in that sports world, came to be known as the brawling brain behind the heist.

Its one of the best british made true crime documentaries that iv come over, its constructed on interviews, heist location footage, a very well set and acted dramatization of the prestory, the heist and the aftermath, all very well knit together in a way that doesnt make or break who was the best, the heistcrew or the policing. So 17 years later most of the culprits have been nicked and have done prison time, and now we have the story. Quite an invigorating mini tv serie that you should watch.

Here in norway we had the ''NOKAS'' in the easter week of 2003(or was it 04), where about 8 mill pounds in norwegian currency where stoles from a counting central in stavanger.ive been fascinated by the planning and the order of guts to excecute such crimes even here in innocent norway. Also albanian and balkan connected, with the harshest heist criminals of norway, made this very personal due to how close it happened, and also the tragic outcome it had. Half of the loot is still missing the thugs though were caught and convicted.

The nokas heist has also been documented alot, but best of them all is the ''nokas''-movie, an intense dramatization of the coup, a must see for every truecrime viewer of the world.

So have a nice showtime viewing ''catching lightning'', the biggest papermoneyheists that will ever happen.recommend from the grumpy old man.

This documentary was great.

To finally hear from Lee himself and see how the lengths the UK Police went to make him out to be the ring leader when clearly that isn't the case.

It's clear the Police's efforts were fuelled by disliking Lee for many years prior as they have made no attempts to go after the other two.

Lee has served his time and more. In tough conditions, he has kept quiet until now.

He should be freed. The extended sentence was completely unwarranted and is continuing to punish him and his family.

You can not infringe on human rights in this manner.

Congrats to Pat and the team! It was worth the wait.

Brilliant doc, every episode had me captivated and on the edge of my seat! Highly recommend 4 episodes weren't enough definitely need a follow up. Love how it was shot and really really enjoyed how it was all put together. From the first episode I was gripped but episode 2 was definitely my favourite. Really interesting to see the ins and outs of the story from another perspective other than the media. Absolutely insane story and glad it's been given a spot light in this documentary.

I think it definitely needs to be consider for an award!!!!! From start to finish it was enthralling, nail biting and cinematic genus.
