Jerry Maguire (1996 movie)

What a fantastically popular movie this is! For being so... dull and "Unimpressive" most of the time.

Jerry Maguire is pretty predictable most of the time. It's got a real feel-good message, which could be really useful to a lot of people, and an all-star cast. But mostly it's got a lot of sweaty-faced monologues, bare butts, desperately heart-wrenching scenes. A little too desperate. They become noise and lose any of the power they could have had.

I don't understand Jerry at all. He has this epiphany, but he's still pretty gripped in befuddling behavior. He's the main source of speeches, at every occasion. He's interesting, but only for a little while.

There are some funny parts, and some unique scenes, I suppose. I was bored with Renée's performance, enjoyed Tom's, actually, even if his character was tedious, but was most impressed by Cuba's. He was the most fun and had the best character. He had his contradictions in character, but everyone in reality does, too.

That's all I can say about it, really, without using a barrage of unnecessary metaphors.
