A truly wonderful Cinemtic experience
I found that Jerry Maguire was one of those movies that just totally inspire you. You sit there and gain an intuiutive belief that Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruuise) is an ass just because of his initial presentation in the movie. Then comes a truly entertaining whirlwind swing of events in the film when the concrete basis that defines Jerry as a person in the movie, his career as a sports agent, his taken away when he is fired. The rest of the film is spent with Cruise's character struggling to succeed in the face of all adversity with the assistance of Rene Zellweger who plays a single mom, who despite other beliefs follows him into this void that he created. The romantic collusion between these two characters because there seems to be almost something wrong throughout until Jerry changes himself in, what makes many great movies, a charcter revelation that redefines his existence. Throughout the film underrated football player Rod Tillman (Cube Gooding Jr.) is not only a comedic support and dramatic inspiration, but part of the reason you just have to love this film. To me this was maybe the most profound work Cuba has ever done because he seemed to me to verge beyond his classic acting form and ascended to a higher level. Couple this with the young kid Zellwegers "son" who lends a cuter side this is a great and enjoyable all around flick. As the kid says and you probably will too when you finish watching it "JERRY!" Yeah its that good

Jerry!
Jerry McGuire is one of the few films that I'd give my five star rating, with great performances, and a well- written and intelligent thought provoking script I find myself stunned that this movie didn't win best picture or best actor at the Oscars.

Tom Cruise in this film is a over-worked sports manager who has lost sight of what is important... after one of the players he is representing winds up the hospital the players kid asks him"Don't you think you should ask him to stop it's his forth concution." Jerry quickly blows off the kid by saying "no one can stop your dad" and gets back to talking on his cell-phone. The kid then, gives him the finger and walks off. This a life changing event for Jerry for he realizes he has turned into someone he no longer wants to be. He then writes "The Things We Were Afraid To Say Aloud" memo to his co-workers about how they should be representing there players. Jerry then gets sacked from his job and loses all of his players except the loyal Cuba Gooding Jr.- Rod Tillwell who stays with him through and through. Jerry then leaves his job with Renee Zwelleger a single-mom, who was inspired by Jerry's memo. They form there own branch of representation and secretly Renee gets attracted to Jerry especially since Jerry loves her son so much. Only problem Jerry can't commit despite the fact he married(just so he could be dad to her son). I won't give away the ending, but this is what a romantic comedy should be not over the top and funny.

Finally a romantic comedy that really is a comedy-
One of my favorite lines is "After two bottles of wine and a bad pizza I suddely grew a conscience."
Or the hilliarous "Show me the money!" scene
Or Jerry's major blow-up as he leaves the office. Those scenes still make me laugh each time I watch them.

The actors are what made this movie deserve high stars. Cuba got a well-deserved Oscar for his hilliarous yet thoughtful character. And Tom Cruise as most times is fabulous as Jerry McGuire he really made this whole movie.I find myself falling in love with him each time I see this movie... and in this one girls you see that wonderful cocky sweetness he brings to the screen. And the little boy in this is nothing short of precious.

Don't wait click the buy now button on your computer and own one of the best romantic comedies ever made! This is one to have in your collection.

Horrible, overrated flick
I like Cameron Crowe's films like Singles and Almost Famous, this is just steaming pile of you know what. Stupid stereotyped characters, ANNOYING stupid little kid for comedic value, senseless and pointless sex scenes, and a cliche' ending. Remember how much everyone was jocking Cuba Gooding Jr. in this movie at the time? Remember his boisterous acceptance speech? What has he done since then....Sled Dogs? Proof that the Oscars are just a trendy clique in themselves.

Oh yeah, I was really hoping Jerry would get his revenge and punch out Kelly Preston at the end of the movie.
