Can you imagine watching Jerry McGuire, where Tom Cruise gets cheated by the Cuba Gooding character in the final scenes, then shot to death for good measure? Trust Me is the downer of all downer movies. The story is about an agent, played by Iron Man's Agent Coulson, Gregg Clark. Like Jerry McGuire, the movie starts with a down-and-out agent hanging onto his life and sanity by a thread. A former child star turned Hollywood agent, Gregg Clarks character befriends a young, talented child star up for a 3 picture role in a Twilight-style movie series. He helps her get free of her father, who has sexually abused her. Time for bells to ring, the sun to shine, and life to be lived happily ever after by this decent, worthy man? No. It's time for the young child star to dump him in favor of a sleazy agent, played by an outstanding Sam Rockwell. Sam Rockwell has the same role as Jay Mohr and his character in Jerry McGuire, a man who will say and do anything to cheat his way to the top. Just when you think it can't get any worse, the pedophile dad shoots Gregg Clark in the final scene. It's a great, uplifting message: No matter what you do, no matter what success you earn, someone with fewer scruples will take it all from you. You Can't Win is the message of this piece of s***.
This is the first spoiler review I've written. Save yourself an hour and a half of pain. This is the Feel Awful Movie-of-the-Decade. One star is generous. Skip Trust Me, and watch Jerry McGuire again.
