False info
At the start of the movie it states that in 1938 German scientists split the atom for the first time. It is sad the producers did not do their homework. The atom was split by New Zealander Ernest Rutherford for the first time in 1917.

Trivia

Moe Berg parachuted into Yugoslavia before his Heisenberg mission. The Yugoslavia mission was to determine which partisan group the Allies should back. Berg's report said that the group led by Tito was the strongest, and his report encouraged Allied leadership to back Tito. Tito ended up after the war becoming the dictator of Yugoslavia. None of this was shown in the movie, though it did portray him working a desk studying the Balkan region, which included Yugoslavia.

Quotes

William J. Donovan: You're an unusual man Mr. Berg, you speak 7 languages, you're an athlete, you're more than up to the physical requirements of the job...
Moe Berg: What job?

Goofs

When Moe exits the taxi (near the start of the movie) he doesn't have the briefcase that he had getting into the cab.
