Just a bit outside reality;MOVIE REVIEW

Moneyball RATING: ALERT VIEWERSports drama. Starring Brad Pitt, JonahHill, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Royce Clayton. Directed by BennettMiller. PG-13. 133 minutes. At Bay Area theaters. "Moneyball" the movie is the greatest argument yet for fantasybaseball managers who are convinced they can run the OaklandA's. With its pro-statistics themes and backroom-deal plot turns, thefilm provides a well-scripted insider look at baseball. Among otherrevelations: Giants General Manager Brian Sabeanis an easy mark, baseball scouts use the "ugly girlfriend factor"in their player reports, and the inside of the Oakland Coliseumactually looks worse than the parts that fans can see.
