"Moneyball" just misses the strike zone
There are several emerging schools of thought on "Moneyball," which tells the story of Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane. For the most part, the movie has been a hit with casual fans and the general public, though the baseball community hasn't been overly impressed. In short, "Moneyball" is a good movie, though it's significantly different than the 2003 Michael Lewis book on which the story is based.
