Buy on Amazon

Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has added Moneyball to its line-up, bringing the Brad Pitt movie to DVD and Blu-Ray Disc in January.

Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane (Brad Pitt) challenges the system and defies conventional wisdom when his is forced to rebuild his small-market team on a limited budget. Despite opposition from the old guard, the media, fans and their own field manager (Philip Seymour Hoffman), Beane – with the help of a young, number-crunching, Yale-educated economist (Jonah Hill) – develops a roster of misfits… and along the way, forever changes the way the game is played.

The DVD version offers an anamorphic widescreen presentation of the film with Dolby Digital 5.1 audio, along with a set of Bloopers and the Featurettes Billy Beane: Re-Inventing the Game and Moneyball: Playing The Game.

On Blu-Ray Disc you will find a 1080p high definition transfer with high definition audio. The discwill include the same bonus materials found on the DVd, but in addition, it will also come with a Moneyball PS3 Wallpaper/Theme and two additional Featurettes, titles Drafting The Team and Adapting “Moneyball”.

“Moneyball” arrives on January 10 and can be yours for $30.99 on DVD, $35.99 on Blu-Ray Disc or $40.99 as a 2-disc Blu-Ray/DVD combo.
