Synopsis

Bennett Miller’s follow-up to 2005’s Capote stars Brad Pitt as Billy Beane, the Oakland Athletics’ general manager whose unorthodox approach to fielding a team had a major impact on the game. Jonah Hill and Phillip Seymour Hoffman co-star in this clever and compelling work of sports realism. –TIFF

Before this i didn't give a fuck about baseball. After this, i still don't give a fuck about baseball. Whilst watching this, i realized how it's not about baseball.Doing and losing is something which is far more admirable than dreaming and winning.

A surprisingly engrossing film, not about sports, but about business. This was the last movie I expected to love, but I did from the very beginning. Brad Pitt is especially good here too; playing a lonely man who is broken by his divorce and his colossal failure as a ball player. An intimate examination of Pitt's character, drive, and belief in the "Moneyball Theory."

Gradevole, anche per chi -come me- di baseball non sa niente. 3*
