“The Catcher Was A Spy” (*** out four) was an engrossing adaptation of Nicholas Dawidoff’s biography of Moe Berg (Paul Rudd) who was a former baseball player who joined the U.S. government during World War II and began doing espionage work as a spy! Imperfect, with some plot points and factors that don’t always pay off, but well-made and well-told and Rudd is perfectly cast in the lead role. Fine supporting cast is well-used and gives good roles to Guy Pearce, Jeff Daniels, Mark Strong, and Paul Giamatti.
