Show Me the Funny
I'll start this review off by saying Cameron Crowe is amazing. If you liked Almost Famous and/or Say Anything, then you'll love this film.

Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) is an unscrupulous sports agent who has an epiphany one sleepless night in a hotel, prompting him to write a mission statement that he distributes throughout his agency. Heartfelt and honest, the mission statement gets him fired and garners the respect of a lonely single mother, Dorothy Boyd (played by the charming Zellweger). He retains a sole client, the over-the-top Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.), and much hilarity ensues.

The acting is A+ all around. Cruise shines in the title role, earning a much-deserved Best Actor Oscar nod. He nails every expression and detail, making even Jerry the jerk likable at the beginning of the film. Cuba Gooding Jr. is fabulous, as usual. He steals every scene he's in and has amazing chemistry with both Tom Cruise and Regina King (Mrs. Tidwell). Bravo on the Best Supporting Actor Oscar, Cuba. Renee Zellweger is charming in her breakthrough role as Dorothy, "the world's oldest 26 year-old". Kelly Preston surprised me as the tough-as-nails, abrasive Avery. She does an excellent job with her supporting role. The entire supporting cast really makes the film work. Jay Mohr, Regina King, Kelly Preston, Jonathan Lipnicki (absolutely adorable), Bonnie Hunt and Jerry O'Connell provide a solid framework for both the story and the main cast. Todd Louiso is my favorite supporting actor. He plays the 'nanny' and is a riot.

Crowe does an excellent job of constucting a film with parallel stories, one moral and one romantic. He paints vivid, likeable characters with witty dialogue. Although predictable (What do you expect from a romantic comedy? They're all predictable.), this film is enjoyable whether you watch it for the first time or the ninety-first time.

The DVD is excellent and chock full of special features. The most notable being the commentary done by Cameron Crowe, Tom Cruise, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Renee Zellweger.

I Love My Wife
I never get tired of Jerry Maquire. This film and Risky Business are my favorite Tom Cruise films. I prefer when Cruise doesn't know it all, has human fallibilities, but we all know that's impossible, not Mission Impossible. The truth is, Tom is one of the biggest movie stars ever and he's beautiful to look at for a short guy. How could anything go wrong in Mr. Perfect's world? That's why Jerry Maguire is so appealing. Even the handsome, fast talking charmer needs the help of his friends, his gal, and a Dale Carnegie enhancement course. Cuba Gooding Jr. has something Tom doesn't, a love for his wife that is nothing less than inspiring. On the other hand, Gooding has no love for his football fans. Tom can help him on the PR front, but then Renee Zellweger and her cute little son show loyalty. The grand finale, Jerry Maguire loves his wife. We all should love our wives. Amen brother.
