Leave your thoughts about The Catcher Was a Spy.
| UproxxVince ManciniThe film doesn’t try to alter Berg’s most essential quality, that he was a mystery. |
| The Seattle TimesSoren AndersenIt’s an absorbing character study of a most intriguing man. |
| ObserverRex ReedThe result is a juicy true story told blandly, but The Catcher Was a Spy is still a movie worth seeing. |
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyPaul Rudd plays Berg with the droll, boyish charm he’s brought to dozens of other roles, but he adds a protective coating. This movie, directed by Ben Lewin from a Robert Rodat script (one adapted from Nicholas Dawidoff’s fascinating 1994 biography of Berg), relishes Berg’s compulsion to remain an enigma even to those closest to him |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThis is a very enjoyable middle-of-the-road adventure, especially for moviegoers willing to see just about anything starring Rudd. |
| The Film StageDan MeccaWhere Spy succeeds the most is in the first half. Rudd is top-notch, playing Berg as a tragic sort jailed in his own mind, internally fighting and assimilating to a world that cannot accept him. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreThe movie is imminently watchable, and the surface sheen is fine, but the real Berg remains more mystery than man with a mission. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinThe movie is well-crafted, but it doesn’t have the fullness you’d expect in a movie with so much believe-it-or-not weirdness. It feels more like a nifty anecdote. |
| The GuardianJordan HoffmanThe film isn’t a home run, but with Rudd in the lead in something so out of the ordinary for him, it’s fair to call a ground rule double. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatySadly, it isn’t a great movie. It’s a disappointingly mild period thriller that’s light on thrills. Even Paul Rudd, one of the most likable actors in Hollywood, can’t rescue it. |
