Definitely one of the best sports movies ever made, I can say that without a shred of doubt. Its singlemindedness (the movie never strays for an instant from scenes about baseball) is both its strength and its weakness - but mostly a strength. A great cast, and somehow it made me forget that I don't like the Oakland A's at all.

Unique in its approach, the film stands alone as a sports story seen through the eyes of its front office, which is way more interesting than it has any right to be. Pitt is perfectly subtle in his portrayal, creating a character both obstinate and driven. His arc is a perfect crux for the film's themes. A really cool thing about it is that the film's antagonist is the media, which is constantly playing in the background like some sort of ominous, perpetually mutable predator in the shadows.

Really enjoyed Moneyball... one of the best Brad Pitt performances, excellent supporting turns from Jonah Hill and Phillip Seymour Hoffman, great writing (as usual) from Sorkin. I enjoyed the movie more in the beginning before the season started, but it's still a great movie.

An engaging story about a good-looking guy with a talented daughter who used his clout to force feed others the unconventional ideas of a brainiac scientist relayed to him by a fat kid with glasses. Oh, and Philip Seymour Hoffman remarkably doesn't touch any kids in the process.

I love baseball and I loved Moneyball in book form, but this was a boring vehicle for Brad Pitt to chew scenery.

Moneyball is a terrific human drama disguised as an sports (or sabermetrics, if you may) movie with a well-rounded, carreer-best performance by Brad Pitt, who exhudes the talent and charisma of some of the best 70s male stars in the vein of Paul Newman.

Really good. The A's are my team, so I'm a little biased. Would have loved more on the field action, but the overall effect of grounding baseball politics with a struggling team like the A's was effective and genuine. Could have gotten a perfect score, with a bit more baseball.

It was decent. All the technical aspects were fine. I can’t say I connected much with any of the characters though. I guess the acting was good, but I wasn’t really emotionally affected at all. It didn’t surprise me to learn the screenplay was co-written by Aaron Sorkin, as the film did feel like The Social Network at points. It probably would help if I was a baseball fan. I know little about it and pretty much none of the players or teams. I wasn’t ever bored, but I was never excited either.

Generally entertaining film is a little too episodic in structure, and goes on longer than necessary, but worthwhile for an intelligent screenplay and Pitt's extraordinarily emphatic, multi-layered and touching performance in the lead. Unfortunately, the underlying story is really not that extraordinary, and isn't a naturally filmic tale, but hats off to director Miller (and producer Pitt) for a good effort.

With the exception of the useless subplot involving Beane's family, it's still very well-written, however, despite all it's ambition, it's impossible to capture the entire drama of a 162-game season within a two-hour time span, and this story would've worked much better as a mini-series.

Really good plot, goes to show how a movie with no action can still be very entertaining. Brad Pitt did an excellent job, but I was most impressed with the great job Jonah Hill did in a serious role.

It is the same movie that comes out every year with slightly different, but inspiring and/or uplifting biographic story about people who 'made it' against all odds. It's such a safe, clear-cut movie, that the only thing I was surprised about was how Pitt is starting to look like Benicio del Toro. Well, see you next year, around oscar's time!

I know nothing about base-ball, but luckily, that is not a pre-requisite to enjoying this fantastic film. There is not a weak character in this film, with outstanding performances by Hoffman and others, but it is the emotional and humerous interplay with Pitt and Kerris Dorsey (just fantastic as his daughter) and Jonah Hill, his side-kick (who steals the show) that makes this film so enjoyable. Pitt, is terrific, the film is beautifully edited, and the screenplay is simply a joy. Great film

Certainly more intelligent than most sport films, but just like the game of baseball itself, it felt a bit dry, and too long. Yeah, I'm not a fan of the sport, and this movie didn't do anything to make me one. I didn't really care that much for Pitt's character and performance, either.

This film is very good. It may turn some off, simply because it isn't watered down for the average viewer, like The Blind Side or other sports films of a similar nature. This is straight down the middle, a true baseball story, and well-acted on all counts.

It's a very enjoyable, easy-to-watch sports film with admirable performances all round, but it doesn't have quite the same kick as, say, The Social Network when it comes to modern behind-the-scenes storytelling. That said, Pitt and Hill make for impressive leads, and it's certainly an entertaining two hours even if it never quite manages to knock it out of the park.
