  I thoroughly enjoyed this movie! The acting by Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill was superb. One didn't have to be a baseball lover to enjoy this movie.

  Excellent movie. Tells the story of the resurgent Oakland A's under Billy Beane's leadership when his team had just lost key players (Jason Giambi, Johnny Damon and Jason Isringhausen) and couldn't replace them with comparable talent due to financial constraints. The solution? Replace them in aggregate rather than player-for-player by focusing on new metrics that had not previously received much attention and algorithms that were not feasible before computers. Scouts and managers still generally inhabited that prehistoric world - at least before Beane. Brad Pitt is stellar in his acting (and in his appearance at TIFF, together with someone called Angelina.)
