Movie Reviews

  • why is this true-story espionage thriller so dull? this based-on-true-story thriller should have been a home run, [but] The swing-and-a-miss–es keep on coming. Boring is the only one that comes to mind after you've seen the film
    2 of 4 by David Fear [Rolling Stone ]
  • when Nicholas Dawidof's book 'The Catcher Was a Spy' was one of those rare, unbelievable stranger-than-fiction stories...sadly, it isn't a great movie. It's a disappointingly mild period thriller that's light on thrills. Even Paul Rudd, can't rescue it
    Review rate : C+ by Chris Nashawaty [Entertainment Weekly ]
  • it's hard to believe that a star-studded biopic about a baseball player who became a top-secret government spy could possibly be so boring
    Review rate : D+ by David Ehrlich [Indiewire ]
  • a very enjoyable middle-of-the-road adventure, especially for moviegoers willing to see just about anything starring Rudd..a handsomely designed period film whose cast is more than capable
    by John DeFore [The Hollywood Reporter ]
