Boring love story = true nature of the movie

Rating: 3/10 (29 December 2013)

You expect a punchy, cynical movie about sports and a behind the scenes look at a sports agent job through Jerry Maguire, and ultimately you end up enduring an extremely conventional and corny rom-com.
This love story occupies a huge place in the script and you wonder why because it is boring to death and so melodramatic that it becomes cringe-worthy.
The part related to sports is almost anecdotal, overshadowed by this boring love plot, and it's quite difficult to understand why Cameron Crowe didn't chose to focus on football since it augured good things especially thanks to Rod, the exuberant Cardinals wide receiver, embodied by the excellent Cuba Gooding Jr., only satisfaction of this insipid and overly long movie.
