Best Sports Movies Of All Time

Moneyball (2011)

This is another sports film that doesn't follow the athlete. Instead, it tracks a general manager, played by Brad Pitt, trying to assemble a competitive baseball team. The surprise in this film, however, was Jonah Hill, who veered from his traditionally comedic roles. He was awarded a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his efforts.
