Jerry Maguire used to be a typical sports agent: willing to do just about anything he could to get the biggest possible contracts for his clients, plus a nice commission for himself. Then, one day, he suddenly has second thoughts about what he's really doing. When he voices these doubts, he ends up losing his job and all of his clients, save Rod Tidwell, an egomaniacal football player.

大部分是為了看年輕的Tom Cruise 劇情普通甚至有點無聊(很難取悅)
“Show me the money! Show me the money! You had me at hello. Tear. Nothing? No?” —Dr. Evil Wow. What a movie. This is so good and I get the hype. Ive now seen 22 Cruise movies.

For most people, that moment might feel like a gift. But for someone who proudly carries the title of the "King of the Living Room," it is almost a nightmare. Because Jerry Maguire has spent his entire life mastering the art of being seen without ever allowing himself to be known. He knows how to enter the room. He knows how to charm it. He knows how to make everyone look his way. But he has refused to learn what happens when the room becomes quiet. Cameron Crowe's Jerry Maguire is a film that disguises itself as a romantic comedy, a sports drama and perhaps a story about redemption that points to a lot of question, What makes us stay? Why remain loyal to a company whose values no longer represent you? Why stay beside me when you could go to Chicago and build a better career? Why sign with me when someone else can offer you millions? Why love me when I am not even half the man I wanna be? Loyalty…
