Moneyball
I am a sucker for baseball movies and my wife is a sucker for Brad Pitt. The weekend we went to see Moneyball and we were both pleased. This is a really good movie made out of a not so easy story to tell: how some guys used statistics as their tool to renovate a MLB team. The acting is great and the story telling is wonderful.
What I found most interesting was the bravery of taking something that was only slightly broken and fixing it with a completely new approach. The A’s that Billy Beane messed with were not complete failures – they had won the division the year before. But Beane realized that his business model could not successfully compete with the Yankees and he was going to have to take a whole new approach.
This movie is fun to watch, but also very thought provoking. Highly recommended.
