Great Film: Jerry Maguire
Only Cameron Crowe can make a movie like this
I just finished watching this movie for the third time and I still love
this movie as much as I did after the first time I watched it. Maybe
even more! As I already said in the title of my review, only Cameron
Crowe can make this kind of movies. Movies about life the way it is and
life the way it should be. What I like the most about Crowe's work, is
that everything is real. The characters, their emotions, the story,…
The whole is absolutely amazing.
Tom Cruise gave an excellent performance as the sports agent with a
heart. Someone for who money isn't the most important thing. It's all
about the relationship between the sports agent and his client. What's
so great about "Jerry Maguire", is the fact that the movie isn't about
who Jerry Maguire really is, it's about who he wants to be. I loved
Cuba Gooding Jr. By far his greatest role ever. Let's not forget Renée
Zellweger and her cute son, amazingly performed by the young Jonathan
Lipnicki. Both where very good. Perfect casting for Zellweger.
I read in the trivia that the title role was written for Tom Hanks.
Don't get me wrong, Tom Hanks is an excellent actor, but to play an
ambitious and arrogant sports manager (what Jerry Maguire was at the
beginning of the movie), you need to have Tom Cruise's face. He was
just perfect for the role. I can't think of anybody who could have done
this as good as he did.
So my conclusion for Jerry Maguire: If you haven't seen it, you should
definitely see it. If you have seen it, I hope you can agree with me.
This movie is wonderful, as where are used from Cameron Crowe-movies.
