Jerry Maguire, like so many of Cruise's roles, is a character destined for redemptive changes.
The movie offers a pleasure similar to watching Jerry Rice run a pass pattern for a touchdown.

Jerry Maguire is an emotional rollercoaster that creates a world full of characters that viewers learn to care about, through the laughter and the tears.
Part sports film and part romantic drama, writer/director Cameron Crowe's third major film, 1996's Jerry Maguire became one of the 90's most successful movies.

if Jerry Maguire is a good movie.....I dislike Jerry Maguire and have watched it often over the years.....Though not my favorite of Cameron Crowe's films, Jerry Maguire is always enjoyable to revisit.....it exists mostly to let listeners enjoy the movie with the camaraderie of the participants who recorded it.....The movie looks as good as it ever has and probably can look in high definition.... ...

Jerry Maguire [Special Edition]
But what stands out as perhaps the film's greatest achievement is Crowe's ability to come up with a script that somehow turns the "tastes great/less filling" beer debate into a non-issue.

A feel-good movie that satisfies emotionally.
Jerry Maguire combines a superb cast with a witty, fresh script to entertain, amuse and touch emotionally.

Tom and Jerry make a great double act.
In the background, laid-back Bonnie Hunt cracks wise as Zellweger's no-nonsense sister, and Beau Bridges puts in a telling cameo as the untrustworthy dad of the college star who could save Jerry's career.

These faces and appropriate horror music turn up time and again, but feel absolutely hokey, again, in part, because it's old hat.
But the effect is less artsy or conducive to the mood of the film than it is herky-jerky as an amateur with a camcorder.

Even more depressing than the relentless rage-a-thon is the fact that the characters have obviously been so drenched in vapid popular culture, they can no longer tell the difference between honest expression and mindless mimicry.
Elkharrazs quiet performance is easy to overlook but holds the film together, and Ouazanis sustained fury is remarkable to behold, even if the role isnt exactly nuanced.

He's so good that he keeps ``Jerry Maguire'' pumped up at sag point.
It's hardly surprising that he breathes fire into his latest role as a high-rolling sports agent in the wonderfully entertaining ``Jerry Maguire,'' out on video this week.
