Tony Toscano Reviews Moneyball

The story of Billy Bean’s unconventional approach to baseball on the outset seems as if it would be as dull as an accounting seminar.

But “Moneyball” is anything but dry and lifeless.

For many of his films, Brad Pitt has never seemed to reach beyond his public persona. In “Moneyball,” Pitt reaches for that indefinable and intangible acting moment.

And succeeds.

“Moneyball” is Brad Pitt’s finest performance to date.

And “Moneyball” is one of the best films of the year.

It gets an A and is rated PG-13.
