Could you make a very inspirational and educational movie for rationalists? Probably. Are such movies actually made? Probably not. Good movies are expensive to produce and need to make money. Rationalists are a tiny niche market. Literature doesn't have this problem to the same extent. Also the time constraints of movies don't really allow much room for development of ideas.
Moneyball, maybe? (I haven't seen it though)
I liked the book better (and I liked the book a lot!)
