Critics Consensus

Director Bennett Miller, along with Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill, take a niche subject and turn it into a sharp, funny, and touching portrait worthy of baseball lore.

Candice Frederick

Reel Talk Online

Like a long, boring game of chess, where hopeful baseball players are discarded as effortlessly as a pawn and a knight, Moneyball fails to provide the sentiment it needs to inspire audiences.

Moneyball is a winner, one of the freshest and smartest sports movies in years.

San Diego Reader

Brad Pitt is at the top of his own game as Beane. Cocky and often nonchalant, he is gnawed by doubts that he tries to cover by grabbing a snack or pitching a grin.

Rated: 4/4

“Moneyball” is expertly constructed, so it should come as no surprise that it was penned by two of the best screenwriters of the last thirty years: Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin.

Rated: 8/10

Above all, Moneybag is a sports film variant traversed by the constant quantification of a financial crisis. [Full review in Spanish]

Deep Focus Review

Even if you don’t care much for baseball or sports in general, traces of a very human underdog drama come through to render the experience a universally consumable one.

The story of the switch in MLB from relying on the "knowledge" of scouts to data metrics. Told upon the mostly true story of Billy Beane and the Oakland A's. It is well written and has some acting gems by Brat Pitt, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, and Jonah Hill. A very enjoyable vision into the behind scenes world of running a baseball team.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Never watched a game of baseball in my life, I have a basic understanding of the sport. Soon after the movie started I didn't feel like I needed to understand, as I was immediately drawn in by the story and character depth, the soundtrack for this movie was insanely pleasing, a extremely great movie.

I'm not into baseball, and have little knowledge about it, but that didn't matter, the movie really had me emotionally invested throughout the whole thing, I was always either laughing, smiling or frowning, the dynamic between private life like family and the baseball job was really great. I wish I was more into baseball so that I could have appreciated this piece better, it was really a great watch.

One of the few good sports movies that a baseball fan should definitely see at least once in his life, interesting and certainly encyclopedic!
