The general manager of the Oakland Athletics decides to employ a statistics-based strategy to make a winning team with the meager budget allotted.
A great film. I rented this basically just because it was nominated for best picture at the Academy Awards. Had I known that Aaron Sorkin co-wrote this, I would have rented it for that reason. Either way, it was rented.
I do not watch sports, besides the occasional women’s tennis match, but I love a sports movie. Hell, I even liked “Real Steel” and it’s not even about a real sport. I absolutely hate baseball, but this movie had me enthralled. It could have been another 40 minutes and I wouldn’t have wavered.
9.5/10
