Dull story about a dull sport

Rating: 6/10 (27 March 2020)

I usually love films with a sorting theme, but this one left me cold.
Yes, I get that he chose a team based on stats and therefore went against common wisdom, but that's about the whole movie summed up in a sentence. There's barely any actual on pitch action. What there is requires you to know the intricacies of baseball. Pitt is ok in what is a relatively easy role to play. It's also long, so long - at least 30 minutes of the film should have been left on the cutting room floor. About an hour in I wanted it to be over and was dismayed when I realised we weren't even half way through. Leave this alone unless you're a baseball fan, there are other options.
