REVIEWS:

" "Jerry Maguire" moves unpredictably through its tale of comeuppance
and redemption, but it never loses its bearings. Disarming acting,
colorful writing and true generosity of spirit keep it right on track."

-- Excerpt from The New York Times; December 13, 1996

"The film is often a delight, especially when [Tom] Cruise and [Renee] Zellweger are together on the screen. He plays Maguire with the earnestness of a man who wants to find greatness and happiness in an occupation where only success really counts. She plays a woman who believes in this guy she loves, and reminds us that true love is about idealism."

-- Roger Ebert; December 13, 1996
