Moneyball is Brad Pitt’s latest film and I must admit when I heard about it I wasn’t that interested. Pitt stars as the coach of a poverty-stricken baseball team who turns to a computer programmer to help identify which players he needs to buy. Sound good? No? Not to me either but the trailer has made me wonder. Pitt appears to be in charismatic form as the determined coach and I am now beginning to see the appeal of Moneyball.

I think I’m looking forward to this film because I know a little about the true story and I’m a sucker for inspirational, and often sentimental, sports movies. Brad Pitt looks well-suited to the role; it should be an interesting story as it is more about how a team with very little money ends up competing at the highest levels against those teams that have endless streams of cash.
I think it’s the true story aspect of it that appeals to me. And the underdog – I’m a sucker for a good underdog.
I’m not a fan of Pitt’s or baseball so I’ll probably skip this one.
Doesn’t really seem made for you does it?
