Critics have already given the Brad Pitt film “Moneyball” a high rating of 92%. The film, which is about Billy Beane, the general manager of the Oakland A’s who reinvents the team with virtually no money, also stars Jonah Hill and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Let’s see what the critics love about “Moneyball”:

“The supersmart and rousing ‘Moneyball,’ which may be the best baseball movie since ‘Bull Durham,’ is…about talk, but in a cooly heady and original inside-the-front-office way.”–Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

“‘Moneyball’ is a thinking person’s baseball movie, and a baseball fan’s thinking movie…[A]s Beane, Brad Pitt gives perhaps his smartest, subtlest performance ever. I don’t know if director Bennett Miller (‘Capote’) is much of a baseball fan, but this feels like a curious outsider’s view of the game and this ‘system’ that exploded 100 years of accepted wisdom. And that’s a great thing.”–Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

“…[T]he things that are wrong with the movie have nothing to do with baseball…Insiders and hardcore fans will probably find reasons to nitpick, as is their wont…But more fundamentally, there’s a problem with the pacing in director Bennett Miller’s film.”–Christy Lemire, Associated Press
