Critic Reviews of "The Catcher Was a Spy"
indieWireJune 22, 2018Handsome cinematography fails to disguise the low production value, and constant cross-cutting between strategy meetings and the mission itself make both parts of the sandwich feel moldy.
Christian Science MonitorJune 22, 2018A much more pallid experience than this eminently juicy subject deserves.
New York Magazine/VultureJune 22, 2018The 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.
Rolling StoneJune 22, 2018Boring is the last word you should use for a sports-hero-turned-spy story like this; it's the only one that comes to mind after you've seen the film.
Detroit NewsJune 22, 2018If it wasn't a true story, it would be ridiculous. But the problem with Ben Lewin's film isn't the plausibility of the storyline, it's the execution of the plot, which comes off like a stiff noir rather than a crackling thriller.
MovieFreak.comJune 24, 2018The Catcher Was a Spy is an imperfect examination of a curiously complicated figure in American history.
MovieWebJune 24, 2018The Catcher Was a Spy has every element needed for a gripping espionage thriller, but sadly falls flat with its placid direction.
IGN MoviesJune 22, 2018If you like this kind of standard wartime folktale, The Catcher Was a Spy is at the very least an acceptable watch.
NerdistJune 22, 2018Like deserting the movie somewhere between subversive and derivative, the filmmakers struggle to show Berg both as an average bum and as a brainy badass.
CinemalogueJune 22, 2018This moderately intriguing thriller tends to further trivialize the remarkable story of its enigmatic subject.
