This movie tells us that in the major league baseball game, Billy's Oakland team lost to the Yankees, and the three main players were poached, the team's future prospects are slim. By chance, he met Peter, a master of economics from Yale University, and they acted in unison for the team concept, so he hired Peter as his consultant to study together how to build a high-victory team. They used Mathematical modeling methods, and began to tap potential stars, put them into the group through various methods. These people seem to have weaknesses and personality biases on the surface, but in some respects they have superpowers for baseball games. Finally, they have made great achievements in criticizing and questioning.
Why Billy and his team can succeed. Good at digging talents and giving them a high degree of trust; scientific theory guidance is a team management model that has never been seen before, but there is no doubt that this interdisciplinary approach is very practical for baseball.

    Wow super inspirational movie

  • Pete 2022-03-25 09:01:05

    In the way of inspirational baseball biography films, Bennett deliberately made some new ideas that are not vulgar and joyful, but unfortunately he is still in the bravery of the losers. Chubby is a very brilliant character. Pete’s performance does not recommend the bravery. On the contrary, there is a sense of misfit with a little overpower. The rhythm of the whole film is not vivid enough, and the communication scene with the Red Sox boss is too sloppy. Although the transition between success and failure and the winning streak seem to be very enjoyable, it is just the basics that a sports film should do.

Moneyball quotes

  • Peter Brand: It's about getting things down to one number. Using stats to reread them, we'll find the value of players that nobody else can see. People are over looked for a variety of biased reasons and perceived flaws. Age, appearance, personality. Bill James and mathematics cuts straight through that. Billy, of the twenty thousand knowable players for us to consider, I believe that there is a championship team of twenty five people that we can afford. Because everyone else in baseball under values them. Like an island of misfit toys.

  • Billy Beane: We got a problem, David?

    David Justice: No, it's okay. I know your routine. It's patter, it's for effect. But it's for them, all right? That shit ain't for me.

    Billy Beane: Oh, you're special?

    David Justice: You're paying me seven million bucks a year, man, so yeah, maybe I am, a little bit.

    Billy Beane: No, man, I ain't paying you seven. Yankees are paying half your salary. That's what the New York Yankees think of you. They're paying you three and a half million dollars to play against them.
