The Naughty Stewardesses
The Naughty Stewardesses follows the typical pattern of a Roger Corman "nurse" film (very popular at the time), only with stewardesses. The plot follows the exploits of four sexy flight attendants, and each of them disrobes in front of the camera and/or engage in intercourse at one point. There's raunchy action with a captain and a lass aboard his plane (in which a small child looks on to get a first hand sex ed class), and a wild party where a nude dude is actually a cake (he gets slobbered by one of the stewardesses!).

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.

The Eddie Murphy romantic/sex comedy "Boomerang" is, quite simply, a thorough and total joy. Murphy portrays longtime womanizer Marcus Graham with his usual charm and poise. Halle Berry is absolutely appealing and absolutely warm as the girl who prompts Marcus to clean up his horny act. Martin Lawrence and David Alan Grier provide ingratiating and stylish buddy-support. Lela Rochon and Eartha Kitt are, respectively, magnificently kittenish and magnificently cougar-ish as women with whom Marcus scores. Yet the film's greatest asset, its leading lure is Robin Givens's portrayal of Marcus's boss/female counterpart Jacqueline Broyer. She is by turns sexy and stylish, sultry and commanding, seductive and polished. We immediately see why Marcus falls under her spell and, when she dumps him, not only do we not turn against her, we admire her independent spirit and her no-bullshit attitude. Really and truly, by and of itself "Boomerang" is a sexy, charming, absolutely joyous romantic/sex farce; with Robin Givens on board, however, it achieves genuine cinematic greatness.

I don't understand the meaning of the title (probably relating to throwing something away, and getting it back), but I recognised many of the African American stars in this film, and I enjoyed the fair amount. Basically Marcus Graham (Eddie Murphy) is a successful advertising executive, and also a hit with the ladies (womaniser). After a company merger he finds that his new boss, ravishing Jacqueline 'Jackie'/'Jack' Broyer (Robin Givens, former wife of Mike Tyson), she is treating him the same way he would. He thought he was in love with her, and for a while he was (presumably), and his work is going downhill, but then later he starts dating her more quietly attractive assistant Angela (Halle Berry), who was dating one of his best friends. In the end, after some negative turns and rejection, the eventually get back together, and they (supposedly) live happily ever after. I can definitely agree with the critics that Grace Jones as Helen Strangé and The Emperor's New Groove's Eartha Kitt as Lady Eloise give the film a buzz. Jones being, well, herself (putting on a French accent) is funny taking her knickers off in public, and demanding sex with Murphy, and saying "pussy" a lot, and Kitt with her funny nymphomaniac (desperate for sex) character, really husky voice, and sexy legs and body (even here 65, she's still foxy). Also starring Jumanji's David Alan Grier as Gerard Jackson, Martin Lawrence (just before his breakthrough in Bad Boys) as Tyler, Live and Let Die's Geoffrey Holder as Nelson, young Chris Rock (not long before he started stand-up comedy) as Bony T, Tisha Campbell as Yvonne and Lela Rochon as Christie. Sure, it's slightly long, but don't let that sway you. Worth watching!

This is my favorite Eddie Murphy movie, it had me laughing from beginning to end, especially the Thanksgiving scene, John Witherspoon is a fool, "BANG, BANG, BANG" though I already knew that when I seen him in Hollywood Shuffle, remember "Winky Dinky Hoe Cakes"? However, I had a problem with how Marcus played Christie, I have a peculiar foot fetish, had that been me and seen those corns on her feet, I would've had those toes in my mouth, but that's another story, anywayz, I also enjoy seeing Halle in that movie back when she was a real sister. I can't front though, I took some pointers from that movie on how to be romantic, without being chauvinistic. Martin Lawrence was in pure form, so was David Allan Grier, "I'd have f**ked him up if he try that karate s**t" as a matter of fact, I'n going to watch it when I get home today, we'll never see Eddie that funny again, I just wish that he would go back to his roots and do stand-up again. All in all, Boomerang is in the top 5 of my all time favorite movies.
