This movie is like how my life was , chasing after girl after girl you’ll find someone that matches your sexual drive but you’ll also find someone who shows u what real love is , then you have a battle between love and sex basically and love always wins but make a choice before it’s too late 💯

Strictly Business is another good movie that came out around this time

I'm not mad at it . It might be an generation thing . Brown Sugar with it's hip hop motif intertwined with the story could make the film and it's jokes more relatable to Jae and Amanda . Boomerang has a lot more nostalgia for me, but that's because I saw it in theaters .

There are so many legendary older Black actors in this movie: Nelson (the ad editor) is Geoffrey Holder. He was a famous Black ballet dancer turned actor. He was known for being a James Bond villain. And he was the voice for 7up commercials for years. Then there’s Earth Kitt, famous Broadway actress, movie actress, singer. She was world renowned. Grace Jones was a famous model for all the big designers. She was known for her androgynous look and that beautiful ebony complexion. She was in the NY hipster & club scene and became a singer with hit record and then an actress. Also was a famous James Bond villain.

Eartha Kitt (Lady Eloise) is not only the original Cat Woman, but she also sings the original "Santa Baby" Christmas song (1953).

Modern-day audience may know Lady Eloise’s actress Eartha Kitt from her voice acting role as the iconically eccentric villainess Yzma from The Emperor’s New Groove.

Eartha Kitt who plays Lady Eloise was the first black cat woman. She is amazing yall should look her up when you have a chance
Poncho Williams

He should of check for her feet before he hit 😂 but I guess it was too late once he had her in the crib
Christopher Hayes
Been waiting a long time for this one.

The next Eddie movie has to be TRADING PLACES

Marcus was never really into either women . Marcus was all about the high of bagging something fly . The more Jackie showed she wasn't really pressed, the more he felt determined to woo her . Angela as down to earth and gorgeous as she was , Marcus used her as a soft landing to get his confidence back after being humiliated by Jacqueline. In the end, he never took any accountability for how he was moving, he just played on Angela's good heart to save him because he " cant breathe" .
Nicole
She is iconic 😍

Honestly women go through this all the time in reverse. The women get used by the “bad boy” , get the good guy and cheat on him with the bad guy. It’s boomerang for real. Great review though
Ric Rude
This movie was refreshingly groundbreaking in the time it came out . The year was 1992 and while we were experiencing an influx of black films and black filmmakers at the box office, a lot of the stories were beloved joints like Boyz in tha hoods, Juice, New Jack City, South Central, Menace to Society, even the romance joint was Poetic Justice type romance aka hood trauma love . What I fell in love with this movie for at 18 was the fact that Boomerang was an iconic all black cast in a setting where characters are running a cosmetics empire, living in fly penthouses, and outside of the relationship shenanigans and jokes, everyone is successful and moving around without white authorities or environmental threats . Nobody dying from gun violence, no 40 ounce beer guzzling, no cursing women out on the block, nobody offering head for crack . Boomerang was kinda the first of this type of black film that showed that there are other black stories besides hood narratives .

Amanda talking about where the water in the pool table scene cracked me up lmfaoo

Marcus was a ladies man probably most of his teen & adult life. Most likely he didn't have a problem pulling the girls/Women, so love or a relationship never entered his mind. That lifestyle affected his thinking, like he said. " I'm want perfection". But nobody's perfect. The woman walking her dog was sweet, but played her & left her because of her toes. 😂SMH. It took a woman like Jacqueline to hurt him, and a woman like Angela for him to see what's important between man and woman. Not excusing his actions, but life lessons as re often learned through experience. It's hard to STOP doing something or living a certain way when you've done it MOST of your life. Marcus had to grow,he wasn't evil, just foolish. It took Angela's love and even Jacqueline hurting him for him to see how foolish he'd been. It's called growth, it takes a while for all of us. Marcus finally grew up.

He most likely replied that because in the reaction they literally said “was this before catwoman” when they saw how young halle berry was.

Eartha Kitt (my namesake) and Halle Berry, two of the Catwoman icons. 🥰

Don’t gaslight Amanda! Wether someone is perfect or not is irrelevant. Amanda is just calling out his whack ass behavior. He cheated on Angela (the woman he had been in a relationship with long enough for her to have a whole art studio at his house) and his excuse was “some things you just can’t help… like who you love”, basically claiming he cheated bc he realized he still loves Jacqueline. Then the next min he’s in Jacqueline’s bed claiming he loves Angela. Amanda just called out that it’s bs, which it is. She didn’t say he’s irredeemable. If Angela had cheated on him he wouldn’t be saying “It’s ok she cheated on me and told me she can’t help that she loves the guy she cheated with, she’s not perfect.” Be fr! Men always make excuses for themselves but if a woman cheats, he doesn’t excuse shit! Be still mad at the girl who dumped him when he was 12! 🤣

This is a very underrated movie with a great black cast. Doesn’t get talked about enough
Mario Owens
I know it all. Im in my 40s and grew up watching.
Mr. B
Yes, but before Catwoman was a movie, Batman was a TV show in the '60s. Eartha Kitt played Catwoman on that show and the rest is Batman history. Not sure why you said the Catwoman movie came out in 2004 except to possibly discredit the claim Kitt was the original catwoman. The claim that Kitt is the original Catwoman is inaccurate. She played in the 3rd season of Batman and was the second woman to play that character in the TV series. This was before my time but thankfully we can rely on research instead of what we think we know.

One min he’s sleeping with Lady Eloise so he can get a promotion, the next min he’s on the curb fussing at Jacqueline that sex is about two ppl caring about each other and sharing something special. Girrrrrlllll… 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What the movie is about is in the title… Boomerang. The games you play will be the same games that come back and chop you in the throat. Playing boomerang can result in you losing your life (aka the right one).
Kangdarius
The first movie that showed me I’m not that weird when it come to the pretty feet thing 😭 I can’t stand a ugly foot woman lol. Those were actually her feet too 😭 never looked at lela rechon the same
Kangdarius
Also the original catwoman
Kangdarius
Lol think it be the music that gets most ppl with brown sugar. I nvr really liked Sanaa character in that tho. Think they might change their mind in a rewatch. Jacqueline is hella iconic.
TheKitt’sPajamas
The fact that Grace Jones arrived at the party like a dinosaur in Jurassic Park! 😩🤣🤣
Jaleel
Speaking of house party yall should continue that 😂

Lady players can run game too. That's basically what the movie about . Marcus changed . His addiction was Robin character. Halle was the one , or the help he needed to get him on the right track .
Tjbosslyfe
They don't even do all black classic movies anymore . So these classics are fun to watch . Tyler perry do it now .
Tjbosslyfe
Eddie definitely the Goat. His company produced the movie . He got Martin and Chris Rock in the movie . Eddie definitely the first megastar comedian .
Tjbosslyfe
We don't talk about catwoman . Bad reviews. Halle berry good in one of the James bond films too. She in Jungle fever too.
Quenna Monroe
To this day I still say “You gots to COORDINATE!” 😂

Brown Sugar better than Boomerang??! Well that’s a take😩 great reaction regardless but WTH 🤣
Gary Best
