Only for team sport fans, probably...

Rating: 6/10 (28 August 2012)

I am not into sports, baseball is totally unknown to me and random short clips about this game have not increased my interest. I decided to watch Moneyball due to several Academy Awards nominations and some great actors - but the result is mixed and so-so feeling.
Brad Pitt is good as usual, but he has had more interesting and complex parts (e.g. in Burn After Reading or 12 Monkeys or Inglorious Basterds). Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robin Wright are too briefly on screen. Jonah Hill does good acting, but his part is often numb. The other performances and just average and some characters add nothing to the logic of the plot (Pitt / Beane's family, for example).
As for the script, it is slow at times, and the ending is too protracted and odd. Additional points from me because of real events and characters.
Thus, it seems that Moneyball can be enjoyed by basketball fans, in the USA, above all. In my country, the movie got rather poor audience.
