Critics consensus

“The Catcher Was a Spy loses sight of the most interesting elements of its fact-based story, dropping the ball and leaving likable lead Paul Rudd stranded.”

In Moe Berg, Rudd helps director Ben Lewin (Paperback Writer, The Sessions) add another unforgettable passive hero to the his increasing menagerie.

It's an absorbing character study of a most intriguing man.

RTTime OutJul 3, 2018

It's a less than passable espionage thriller watered down by a vague character study.

...a decent-enough piece of work that mostly feels like it should be much, much better.
