Catching Eddie Murphy in his prime, Boomerang delivers a hypnotic story that entrances us with its charm, wit, and Honesty. Though we are ensnared by Marcus and his womanizing ways, we are entranced by Angela's rebuttal (This isn't about your love, it's about the fact that you can't love me the way I deserve to be loved). Real Talk, you need this movie in your life.
Storyline
Marcus is a successful advertising executive who woos and beds women almost at will. After a company merger he finds that his new boss, the ravishing Jacqueline, is treating him in exactly the same way. Completely traumatized by this, his work goes badly downhill. But then Jacqueline's more quietly attractive assistant Angela, who has been dating Marcus' best friend, shows herself more than a little concerned by his parlous state.
