Ali Plumb (BBC Radio 1) and Ally Wybrew (Empire Magazine) return to Flixwatcher to review Ali’s choice Moneyball. Moneyball is a 2011 baseball film based on true events starring Brad Pitt, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Jonah Hill.  Directed by Bennett (Capote, Foxcatcher) Miller and co written by Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin it tells the story of the Oakland Athletics baseball 2002 season where manager Billy (Pitt) Beane with the help of Peter (Hill) Brand uses sabermetrics to (controversially) recruit players on a small budget. How you feel about Moneyball largely depends on how you feel about baseball in general and how interested you are in the use of statistics in sport - if neither of these things get you going Moneyball may not be your film. Pitt puts in a decent performance that includes him eating in many scenes but it’s Hill that gives the surprising performance as his semi reluctant assistant. Moneyball isn’t without the sports movie cliches and it is as macho as you’d expect from a baseball film. The zinging Sorkin script gives it both its energy but by being so fast for non baseball aficionados it’s sometimes difficult to keep up and understand what’s going on. Scores [supsystic-tables id=144] Despite being very, very niche Moneyball scores a fairly respectable 3.91 overall. What do you guys think? Have you seen Moneyball? What did you think?

Ep #139 Moneyball with Ally Wybrew from Empire Magazine and Ali Plumb from BBC Radio 1

Ally Wybrew (Empire Magazine) and Ali Plumb (BBC Radio 1) join Flixwatcher to review Ally’s choice Legally Blonde. Legally Blonde is a 2001 romantic comedy starring Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods, the seemingly ‘dumb blonde’ who goes to Harvard to study law and impress her ex-boyfriend.  Legally Blonde could easily be awful, there is a LOT of pink and there is a Chihuahua called Bruiser, but the film's message that you can be what you want to be with hard work and determination and the performance from Witherspoon makes it an enjoyable and surprising film.   There is great satisfaction to be had when she realises her ex-boyfriend is a complete douche bag and she is much better than him. Equally satisfying is Elle keeping her promise to the high profile client they are defending (a brilliant Ali Larter) and court triumph following her sexual harassment from her senior professor. Scores [supsystic-tables id=137] Legally Blonde has aged reasonably well, what Elle Woods might have to say in the forthcoming third installment coming in 2020 remains to be seen though. Scoring generously across all categories Legally Blonde’s overall total is 3.7 What do you guys think? Have you seen Legally Blonde? What did you think?
