I don't really appreciate sports, and as such I don't often appreciate such inspirational sports films as this, but Moneyball does have a great deal going for it. Placing Brad Pitt in the leading role is a nice start, and his character seems to be more than just your typical aggressive inspirational coach figure, as he's not even a coach. Pairing him up with Jonah Hill is another interesting move. Having a touch up on the script done by Aaron Sorkin helps. Probably the most obviously successful move is Wally Pfister as cinematographer. If nothing else, this looks like the best looking sports film in years.
