Editorial Review:
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

Great Movie! I am glad to have this as part of my collection.

5 out of 5 stars "WoW an Eddie & Martin collabo".......2007-03-31

"Boomerang" is a very funny movie. This movie shows that in between the one stands and trying to be a ladies man, you still find time for a little humor. Also the movie was filled with alot of strong actors & actresses.

5 out of 5 stars Eddie Murphy at his best!.......2007-02-10

What can I say, Eddie Murphy is a genius. The first time I saw this movie, I fell in love with every character, especially Chris Rock's character. I really loved Halle Berry's character, Angela Lewis. What I really love about this film is the fact that you learn karma does exist, what comes around goes around. I recommend this film to all. Men should treat women with respect and dignity, not like sexual conquests, so that they can tell their friends about their late night escapades!!!!!! I also learned that you can find love where you least expect it, and that people do change.

3 out of 5 stars Boomerang.......2007-01-10

I Loved the product. It took longer than I expected but never the less, I'm satisfied.

5 out of 5 stars Have You Earned Your Black Card Yet? .......2006-06-25

I got this movie for my husband, cause of all the movies he's never seen it. I told him he could only get his black card unless he has seen this movie. And he laughed from beginning to end of the movie.

I personally loved the movie, i have plenty of favorite lines that keep me laughin even when i say them.

Product Description

Movie Description Elia Kazan's brilliant docu-drama about an innocent man brow-beaten into confessing to the murder of a minister. Andrews is the D.A. who decides to dig deeper into what seems like an open-and-shut case. Look for playwright Arthur Miller in the suspect line-up. Based on an article by Anthony Abbott in Reader's Digest. Credits Cast: Dana Andrews Director: Elia Kazan Synopsis This melodrama, based on the true story of an unsolved murder, carefully combines fact with fiction in semi-documentary style. When a prosecuting attorney investigates the killing of a Connecticut clergyman, he begins to suspect that the accused man is innocent -- and sets out to prove it.

5 out of 5 stars Boomerang past & present.......2007-02-09

The content of this story is as relevent today as it was in 1947 when the film was made. Bottom line for me is that it is the laws job to protect the inocent just as much as it is to convict the guilty. When media and public opinion stir up histeria it puts alot of presure on the police and courts to hang someone be they the guilty one or not. This film helps us all understand that for justice to prevail all must keep a clear mind.

    Netherlands released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada. LANGUAGES: French (Dolby Digital 2.0), Dutch (Subtitles), English (Subtitles), WIDESCREEN (1.85:1), SYNOPSIS: The hyperactive cinematography of "Children of Love," a Belgian pseudo-documentary exploration of the effect of divorce on children contributes to the nervous, disconsolate mood of Geoffrey Enthoven's first feature film. The dour little Belgian movie follows the lives of a woman, her two ex-husbands, and three children over an anxious weekend at the end of which the children are interviewed; accurate but sour and distastefully intrusive.

But the residents of this caravan park prefer to look at soccer, a boxing-match or a beauty-contest. They are not interested in an interview with the famous writer Pierre Mertens (Noël Godin). As they are far from home they also want to have some sexual adventures or start a love-affair. The campsite is also the place where everybody wants to live in complete freedom and forget the obligations of everyday-life. SPECIAL FEATURES: Featurette, Interactive Menu,

He can't help but crank out the occasional false note, just often enough to enrage his listeners and discourage any donations. He dreams of playing a large pipe organ. The juke box drowns him out at a cocktail bar, a church organ drowns him out on a street, pinball machines drown him out at Luna Park. The city's neon lights and commercial posters overwhelm his small art. At the end of the day, he captures the tear of a calliope horse - his sole earnings for the day - which may prove magical. Goldframe: Jason Goldframe is a god in Hollywood. He makes movies, he's demanding, he wants to be first, there are at least five phones on his desk. At the end of a day in which he has been driving his staff to finish a picture in 270 millimeters (another first, if he can pull it off), he visits a sound stage and directs a lighting technician to project a bright light on his back so he can cast a large shadow on a white wall. Goldframe then sets about with great energy and manic action to move faster than his shadow: 'I must be first.' Has he met his match in his two-dimensional doppelganger?

She has been going out with career theologian Martin for three years, but it appears her real true love is her dog, Bob. Bob dies in a tragic car accident and poor Camille is devastated. She is so upset that she grabs the wrong clothes from the laundromat. The clothes belong to the beautifully predatory Petra. Camille discovers the error and returns them to Petra's workplace, an avant-garde circus in an empty warehouse where Petra confesses that she switched them on purpose so she could seduce Camille. Camille demurs. Petra begins following her, and gets to kiss her in the lobby. Eventually the persistent Petra succeeds and the two become lovers. SPECIAL FEATURES: Interactive Menu,

              This much-liked WWII series ran on ABC from 1966-1968 and told of the adventures of four jeep-riding soldiers--Americans Sam Troy (Christopher George), Mark Hitchcock (Lawrence Casey) and Tully Pettigrew (Justin Tarr) and Britisher Jack Moffitt (Gary Raymond)--battling General Rommel's Afrika Korps in the North African desert. Hans Gudegast (later soap star Eric Braeden) played arch-nemesis Capt. Hans Dietrich. This is Volume Two: In "Boomerang," the patrol picks up an Allied agent on the Mediterranean coast of Africa, but not everything adds up when they find an American body without dog tags. Dick Sargent guest stars. And in "Street Urchin," the men fight to save a group of people--one of whom has some valuable aerial photos--from the Gestapo. 50 min.

LANGUAGES: English (Dolby Digital 2.0), French (Dolby Digital 2.0), English (Subtitles), French (Subtitles), WIDESCREEN (1.85:1), SYNOPSIS: In this metaphoric drama from French writer, director, and actor Jean-Marc Barr, Lyle ($Barr) is a farmer who lives in the rural Midwest with his wife Amy (Rosanna Arquette). Lyle's marriage to Amy is not an especially happy one; they never have sex, partly because she can't bear to betray the memory of her first husband, who has passed on, and partly because she is frightened by Lyle's unusually large penis. Lyle pursues celibacy with a grim determination until the day his childhood friend Vernon (Ian Vogt) comes to town for a visit with his wife, a beautiful French woman named Juliette (Elodie Bouchez). Vernon has been unable to satisfy Juliette sexually, and when she hears about Lyle's unusually proportioned body, she decides to seduce him. All is happy for Lyle and Juliette until word of their affair spreads through town, angering a group of vengeful fundamentalist Christians. While Barr and most of his creative team are from France, Too Much Flesh was shot in English on location in Illinois. SPECIAL FEATURES: Filmographies, Interactive Menu, Trailer(s),
