** Spoilers galore **
I really got hooked into the first half of this. The “nerds rule” sentiment, hiring the chubby geek to crunch the numbers while Joe-Handsome tracks down the players was fascinating. I couldn’t wait for the equation to be solved; for the bad news bears to coalesce into the baseball powerhouse the geek hero predicted they would be. But Moneyball is based on a true story, so unfortunately they must be factual. Which is to say that, apparently, the whole thing was a fluke. Not really the best way to end a sports movie…
