Editorial Review: Product Description: A manhattan playboy gets a new corporate boss and she treats him the way he has always treated women. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 05/17/2005 Starring: Eddie Murphy Tisha Campbell Run time: 118 minutes Rating: R Director: Reginald Hudlin Amazon.com: Eddie Murphy makes a graceless debut as a romantic lead in this comedy from Reginald Hudlin. Murphy stars as a ladies man for whom the tables turn when he suddenly finds himself taken for granted by a lover (Robin Givens). Meanwhile, the platonic friend (Halle Berry) whom Murphy regularly visits is obviously--to the viewer, anyway--the woman he's supposed to be with. The absurdly long film is filled out with some fairly crude humor, such as the sight of Geoffrey Holder taking a whiff of Grace Jones's underwear. Yet Hudlin and Murphy also strain for a veneer of elegance and sophistication. Wanting to play it both ways, they end up with nothing. But there are several good sequences where Murphy is quite funny just being Murphy, such as his explanation to Berry of how you can tell which characters in an old episode of Star Trek are destined to die. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Players get played tooMan has this movie aged well. Boomerang was crass, raunchy, vulgar and funny as hell to boot. It was Eddie Murphy in top form just the way we like him. Plot/story: Marcus Graham(Eddie Murphy) is a marketing executive with a player mentality who meets his match with a gorgeous boss by the name of Jacqueline(Robin Givens). Marcus eventually tries to cope after getting p-whipped and played by Jacqueline. Opinion: Boomerang was funny as hell back then as it is funny now. The ... Read More Rating:  - Just try making that out of a cola nutBoomerang was not a huge success for Eddie Murphy, but I think it is a very entertaining film that unfortunately was too racy to appeal to a family humor audience, but not raw enough for the raunchy crowd. As a romantic comedy, it is perfectly adequate, but what really made it entertaining for me were the incredibly talented women. Legendary Diva Eartha Kitt has done it all. She was born in South Carolina, but she sang and danced her way out of poverty, and by the 50's she had performed ... Read More Rating: - Eddie's last good film before his nineties slumpBoomerang was Murphy's last good film before he hit his slump. The film directed by Reginald Hudlin gave Murphy the chance to spit many one-liners and the chance for us to see two people who would be big later; Martin Lawerence and Halle Berry. If you've never seen this film check it out for some good laughs. Rating: - Ladies' man Eddie is looking mighty smooth!OK,here's another Paramount film starring Eddie Murphy as a suave,charming ladies man scoring with women for sure. Great support from Halle Berry(WHY DO FOOLS FALL IN LOVE?),Tisha Campbell and Chris Rock(TV's Saturday Night Live). Rating:  - Eddie what happened to your career?Martin Lawrence, pass the broccoli spears. Are you kidding with this crap? This movie and others like it, catering to the lowest form of sterotypes, just fuels the ignorance fire. How does Martin Lawrence keep getting movie roles, he is such a one note actor. And it seems like Eddie Murphy's career is in reverse, these are the type of movies that actors do early in their career's, forgetable stinkers. There must be better material out there somewhere, please find it. Browse for similar items by category:
