This didn’t really move my needle. I like Rami Malek and I like revenge, but if you’re signing up for a revenge movie, the villain needs to die, preferably by having his face ripped off by the hero (ref Fury Road). The thinking man’s comeuppance here doesn’t really satisfy.

It’s been a while since I’ve watched this baseball/data movie and it’s still impressive they made a sports movie about spreadsheets. This wants to depict the old guys with the old way of doing things as the villains and the nerds as the heroes. But knowing what I know about baseball, some heart and intuition is still required to play the game.
