A spin-valve magnetoresistive effect film includes a magnetization fixed layer, a magnetization free layer, and an intermediate layer interposed therebetween. The intermediate layer has a conduction part disposed in an insulation layer and made of a magnetic metal material. The ferromagnetic film stacked on an upper side of the intermediate layer, out of ferromagnetic films constituting the magnetization fixed layer and the magnetization free layer has a perpendicular orientation part which is disposed above the conduction part and whose crystal growth direction is substantially perpendicular to a film plane, and a non-perpendicular orientation part which exists in a portion other than the perpendicular orientation part. A magnetoresistive effect element has a pair of electrodes passing a sense current in a direction perpendicular to the film plane of the magnetoresistive effect film.
