Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Rocketeer_Raccoon For a long time I've always knew and remembered about this film because it features the hit song "End Of The Road" by Boyz II Men but never really watched the film itself. Well, at one night I decided to dive into this movie to see what this Rom-Com film is like. Oh...well after watching the entire film I can honestly tell you now that this movie is actually bad, it's as bad as Steve Irwin getting a stingray barb up the life force. It just baffles me that such a classic song would be featured in a train wreck of a film like this.The story is as boring as a soup opera and the film is severely lacking in the comedy side of things, the things that are supposed to be funny are just not. Sadly the funniest thing in the movie was this strange disturbing advert they show mid way through the film to promote the company. The worst character in the whole film is Strangé (Grace Jones), she dresses up like a freak and all she ever talked and shouted about was dirty sexual things and rudely calling out different people in an restaurant "gay" after Marcus (Eddie Murphy) declined her ridiculous offer of sex.Bottom-line, Boomerang has too much romance, is plain boring due to the lack of comedy and the story just wasn't very interesting.One last thing, why is the movie called Boomerang? There's no Australians, kangaroos and boomerangs in this. If the movie were a boomerang, I would throw it away into a bin.

bent-mathiesen A man have a high class life style, chases women, have sex with them and check their feet _after_ sex to see if she is the perfect one...Do yourself a favor - so not waste time to watch this movie. Watch another of Eddies movie - or a newer with Hally Berry.It tries to hard to be funny, and is not. - The sex scenes are boring, don't deliver. - The romance played just have no substance.All the classic personalities are there, the man who uses women for sex, the woman who uses men for sex, power play at the C-level, the parents, the friends, the best friends who like same girl, the beautiful sweet girl, etc. It has all, but no real story and fails to put substance into anything.It tries too hard to be funny, sexy and romantic - and is not. After ca 1.5 hour of misplaced racial humor, bad jokes on sex and romance we get to the end, Thanks....Skip 1.5 hour into the movie and just watch the last part. Here the beautiful girl get captured by the main actor who finally realize that he loves her - and that while having sex with another girl.However, I feel sorry for the sweet innocent girl, to get the man who only have been using women for sex until then - and only judging them based on the toes on their feet.

Oatmeal-n-Bisquick77 Where do I start? Wow. It is rare that a movie can make me smile but at the same make me really laugh. No fake laughs but real laughs I seen this movie a number of times and it never gets old. The cast is so superb... I mean come on Martin( who is actually funny in this movie... okay he was funny in blue streak also) David Allen Grier ( Very underrated talent...funniest cast member on "in living color") and of Course Eddie Murphy. Then the other supporting cast was hilarious. How can anyone not love this movie... and my god I can quote it all day long. This movie is a perfect example of relying on the surrounding cast members and not one star to bring in the funny. Worth the view..

btorbit1 Eddie is at the top of his game in this one. Great Laughs and Great Women. Halle Berry, Robin Givens, Eartha Kiit, and Grace Jones give tremendous performances. The storyline is very creative and there is a true lesson to be learned:L Plays do sometimes get played. I watched this movie in the theater when it first was released and I have watched it on video and now DVD every year since. This is a true classic with something for everyone. I especially like the style and class of the characters. They are all professionals who enjoy a good time. You can tell that they had fun making this move. Martin Lawrence and Chris Rock are hilarious in this movie along with Eddie and David Allen Greir.
