The cocky ladies' man views each new conquest as another notch on the holster... Marcus Graham (Eddie Murphy) is a successful young marketing executive who has never lacked for attention from women. The cocky ladies' man views each new conquest as another notch on the holster of his oversized ego. But one day the tables are turned, and he falls for a high-powered female executive who treats him the same way he's been treating women for the last 15 years. Marcus realizes that it's not so fun to be on the other side of objectification and rejection, and he soon finds himself becoming a quivering bundle of insecurities. The question is whether he will learn enough from the experience to see that true love has been right under his nose all along. [More]

Reviews for Boomerang
For all the sex talk in Boomerang, there's very little nudity. The only thing naked is Murphy's vanity.
A witless, sexist, offensive mishmash that is surprisingly inept, considering all the high-power talent involved.
Boomerang is the funniest, most sophisticated movie of Eddie Murphy's career.
Murphy gives his most appealing performance to date, using his smug, self-satisfied, sly smile as a joke on his own well-known screen persona.
Whatever [Murphy] was thinking during the dark days of his career slump, it seems to have paid off handsomely.
