I can't recall any other movie where I really didn't like the
main character of the movie and still come away loving the movie
more and more each time. It's a testament to the story, the
script and the other actor's that keep this one glued together.
This isn't a knock against Tom Cruise as Jerry Maguire , the
super sports agent to Rod Tidwell played by Cuba Gooding Jr.
Watching Jerry throughout the film, you see a man that is
extremely dedicated to his job, but lacks any kind of emotional
connection or humility, which makes Dorothy Boyd (Renée
Zellweger) infauation with him all the more puzzling. I get that
she has fallen in love with the man that "he wants to be and the
man that he almost is". But it really is a bit odd how much
stock she puts into him. The character does have to be cynical
and business-like throughout the entire movie so that the ending
will work when he finally realizes what is important and he
fulfills his arc.
There aren't that many date movies out there that actually
appeal to both sexes. It's usually pretty much one-sided. But in
the hands of Cameron Crowe (Almost Famous)

/>he pulled this off without it ever seeming like a date movie.
I've always been a big fan of Cuba and along with Regina King as
Marcee, they were the couple of the film. With all that said,
the real star of the movie for me is Jonathan Lipnicki as Ray.
Whenever I watch this movie and see what Jonathan is bringing
each time on screen, I can't help but think of another awesome
kid actor by the name of Jackie Coogan, although Jackie was
acting up a storm and I suspect that Jonathan was just being
himself. But whatever the situation was, he owned the movie.
This is one of those DVD's I will never sell. Definitely a Buy
for everyone else.

Still one of my all time faves speeches because it's life
imitating art in a scene right out of the movie itself. Still
hair raising good.
