A top sports agent is sacked and has to face up to the harshness of rejection

Rating: Null/10 (2 December 1998)

I'm not really too hot about Tom Cruise, but this film changed all my opinions about him. I think this and Rainman are his best works by far. Jerry Maguire (Cruise) is a top sports agent but when he does a memo stating his film should be more human, he gets the sack. He leaves taking the goldfish, his one client left Rod Tidwell (An excellent Cuba Gooding Jr) and one of the accountants Dorothy a single mum (Renee Zellweger). This film is superb and really deals with people's emotions. Tom Cruise is excellent as the confused Jerry Maguire, Cuba Gooding Jr is both funny and sweet as Rod Tidwell and got a well deserved Best Supporting Actor Oscar (Show me the money!) Renee Zelleger is very good as Dorothy who is hopelessly devoted to Jerry. This is a good, fun film to watch and I must admit I had a tear in my eye at the end, and the 2 little boys in it are realy cute
