Anyone else watch "Moneyball". What a great movie

I'm rooting for Brad Pitt to win the Oscar. He was just amazing in that movie. It was a great baseball movie that even non-baseball fans could enjoy watching.

And who was that girl who played his daughter? Did she sing that song - she has a lovely voice!

1. Agreed - it was excellent

The entire story and the acting in it were great. Not only did I love Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill was excellent, too - and I loved the daughter, she was adorable.

3. Just watched it a couple of nights ago.

Loved it, ended up crying big tears at the end when he's listening to his daughter sing that song. I'm a baseball nut and I loved seeing the game from the inside.

4. Is there any role that Philip Seymour Hoffman isn't good at?

Never in a million years did I imagine him as a baseball manager.

The dude is a national treasure.

Fine flick.

8. Hmmm, I thought it was just so-so.

Of course, I hate sports and that might have influenced me. The only person I liked in the movie was the statistics guy, probably because he was so unlikely to be involved with baseball, and he was awesome smart.
