Jerry Maguire - Critique
"I think in this Age, optimism is a revolutionary act." - Dorothy Boyd (character) 1996 - written by Cameron Crowe. MORE quotes than critique so just a bit of fun! 😄
A scathing mission statement, yet
A little human touch,
in work & in love
goes a long way
to get into her “secret garden”.
Iconic lines parodied and
Remembered for close to three decades:
“Show me the moneeeey!!”
“Help me, help you!”
“You complete me.”
“You had me at hello.”

I recently rewatched this with my husband and I was shocked at just how many iconic lines the film is responsible for. I honestly think it’s got more quotable lines still in the zeitgeist than any other. PS great summary of the film!
Such a great review, Grz! I think I was off the grid when you published some of these, seems I missed quite a few! This one took me back in time. Such a great movie– I watched it over and over again when I was younger. Now I want to go back and watch it again. :) Hope you are doing awesome!
Love the fun cross overs of dialogue!
This is amazing, congratulations on your top story
So spot on. I really loved this show. Great critique Grz. Congrats.
Nice 😊
Haha. I remember this movie. Great reflection and review that felt like a time warp. A good one at that.
Hilarious and informative to someone who still has not seen this movie! Love all of those quotes. Great review! 💜
fun critique. Hilarious. Congrats
I really loved this movie. And you are right, there are so many good lines in it.
Very poetic and I feel truly grasped the film’s message.
That's good
This is very interesting!
That was a great movie, and great summary. "Iconic lines parodied and Remembered for close to three decades:" yep! Times have changed, a few months ago I watched a psychologist on youtube say “You complete me” is a sign of a controlling personality you should run away from immediately in any dating situation. But maybe in 2023, being a youtube psychologist and telling people anything they want to hear is the way to "Show me the moneeeey!" so who knows what to believe. Congrats on TS
Yay 😁 well done on top story! 👌👏✨
“You had me at hello.” was my favorite! So tender and romantic 😊

Omg I loved this movie. Thanks for the revisit. Great review and the song being added to my playlist right now. Also, I thought I was already subscribed but apparently not now. I am now 😊🎵😊
If only every movie critique was in the form of poetry.
What a great critique! I'm not really a big TC fan, but I enjoyed this movie. (Don't tell Pam.)
