Of course that's without nuance. Marcus had never moved in with anyone before. They were clearly dating for awhile for all of her things to be there. Marcus was telling everyone he changed. So, it looked like he was turning over a new leaf. She had reason to open her heart and believe his word on wanting a serious relationship. So, she'd certainly be shocked this turned into another play.
I truly miss this time period of seeing so many Black people all at once on my screen 😢. Not saying it completely went away, but Black movies spanning from the 70s-90s just hits different ❤️…
For sure!!! In a way, it has kind of gone away! Now days we don't see these types of films being put on the big screen and if we do get a majority Black cast, there is sure to be some trauma somewhere in there! The 70's-90's and even a couple from the early 2000's felt like the prime era for Black Cinema
Especially when they show smart black professionals. I personally think Tyler perry blocks a lot of the good stuff. He always has to put out black American horror stories, with weak characters and writing.
Wow so you miss toxic hetero movies🙄 this is exactly why y'all hate the color purple y'all rather see hetero abuse than to focus on the real love between 2 beautiful black queens. Ok then go ahead and miss it if you want🤦🏿♀️
Oh wow so yt must be afraid of the word hetero well let me reiterate; Oh so you miss toxic h*tero movies🙄 this is exactly why y'all hate the color purple y'all rather see h*tero abuse than to focus on the real love between 2 beautiful black queens. Ok then go ahead and miss it if you want🤦🏿♀️
@@Fluer-de-Lisblack horror? Are you serious oh you wanna see black horror and trauma go watch THEM. Chile pls that man doesn't have the brain capacity to write a decent black horror film or tv show
This movie is full of black excellence. Here are some fun facts: This movie was directed by the Hudlin brothers who also directed House Party. Eddie Murphy & Martin Lawrence were also in Life, Eddie Murphy & Chris Rock were also in Beverly Hills II, Doctor Doolittle & Dolemite Is My Name, Eddie Murphy & the late John Witherspoon were also in Vampire In Brooklyn, Martin Lawrence & Tisha Campbell were also in House Party, House Party 2 & Martin, those two & David Alan Grier were also on Martin, Martin Lawrence & Chris Rock were also in Death At A Funeral, Martin Lawrence & John Witherspoon were also in House Party & Talkin Dirty After Dark, John Witherspoon & Bebe Drake were also in House Party & Friday After Next, David Alan Grier & Robin Givens were also in Blankman & Eddie Murphy & Lela Rochon were also in Harlem Nights.
@SistaGurlonFilms Another 90s gem I saw at 13yo on the infamous 3 day free HBO/Cinemax trials. Watching this as a grown ass lady, it speaks volumes NOW! I still call some of my exes' relationships as "It was whack" like Eddy towards Tisha lol!
I just watched this as an adult last week and i for the life of me could not understand how Marcus let Jacqueline play him like that. He KNOWS the game and ignored all the signs. The moment she told me to call her assistant to arrange a date in 3 weeks i would have said bet, continued to get with other women, which Jacqueline literaly said he should do because he is a player. She knew what it was and he should have known better. Also him continuing to simp for her after Angela straight up moved her art stuff into his place was super lame.
Marcus is a fool. He committed 2 sins: first of all, DONT shit where you eat!!! Him not only sleeping with his next door neighbor, BRUH, but then leaving it messy especially when he’s bringing them back to his place 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️. And second, he was chill, he could’ve had Jacqueline. She was the total package but he started to press and it turned her off bc she knew she didn’t need him but she wanted him after he stopped chasing her. Moral of the story, patience is a virtue
Boomerang is my top 3 all time favorite behind Deep Cover & Tales From The Hood...To me, Boomerang was one of the best representation of excellence on screen for melanated people...The characters had cool jobs, spoke well, dressed well, the women were fly, and they were handling their own business...Marcus knew he messed up and Angela was smart for not moving back in with him after they made up...Going forward, Marcus would had to earn Angela's trust and respect again.
If you notice Eddie Murphy's filmography, whenever he did a movie with a Black ensemble cast, it was almost always Black Excellence. Coming to America, Harlem Nights, Boomerang, (Life might be the only exception) all showcased Black folks in a positive light, for the most part! I almost feel like Eddie Murphy doesn't get enough credit for that. I do love that they wrote Angela so well! At the first occurrence of disrespect, she was out of there! And she learned her lesson and was not moving back in with that fool! lol
The character of Angela should have gotten Ray Ray and Bo Bo to help her move her stuff right then and there so she didn't have to go back to Marcus' home. Realistically, she probably should have left him alone and look at it as a lesson learned. His hoe-ism is a character issue.
47:34 He told the truth for the first time in his life And Angela QUICKLY had the perceiving vibe on him where he couldn't weasel his way out of his romantic manipulations Gold ⭐✨ for Angela
8:00 OMG!!!!! I hated those guys on social media making big deals about women’s FEET😡🤣🤣 Ready to throw a whole woman away just because her toes don’t look PERFECT😑 I’ve never heard of MASCULINE men getting hung up on silly shit like that🤦🏾♂️
Luckily now days women can make money off of these folks with foot fetishes lol. The worse thing is that some of those men will be all crazy about pretty feet but their toes are throwing up gang signs and look just like their mama's toes 😂😂😂
lol Also the fact that it's just Eddie Murphy on the cover and his name is featured prominently.... smh! This star-studded cast and it's only him on the cover?! a mess! 😂😂
46:08 on the phone 📱 I think Jacqueline knew she was shacking up with Marcus and she deliberately detained Marcus to cause friction with Angela if he was serious about Angela he should have left the meeting ASAP but his body language going to the refrigerator the next day proves the jig is up with a guilty conscience you can tell he hated what he did he finally got caught in his own mouse 🪤. The only thing was He was lucky he wasn't married 💍 adultery escalates in worse situations especially when children are involved.
Jacqueline was very smart, so she definitely knew and only wanted to sleep with Marcus so she could feel like she had one up on Angela. Marcus had no reason to "love" Jaqueline besides the fact that she was not "easy" and she treated him like an option and not a priority
Fun facts: 1. Vanessa Williams was considered for Jacqueline 2. The studio was nervous about Robin Givens being cast as Jacqueline. At the time, she was labeled as a cold-hearted golddigger by the media and the general public during her marriage to Mike Tyson. Reginald Hudlin felt her public image made her perfect for the part because she could be seen as a strong woman who could control Marcus 3. In the original script. Marcus wasn’t supposed to end up with either woman. It was rewritten. 4. Angela smacking Marcus was real.
That would have been better Ending Marcus not Ending up with Any of the women. But If he would end up with any of the women He would be better with Jacqueline
Hey Sista Gurl i enjoyed your reaction. But it takes two to tango. Angela already knew about Marcus reputation and she went ahead and slept with him anyway. Did she think she was going to tame him or did she want to see what it felt like. She could of had jerod but he wasnt her type? She was supposed to had been smarter than that. Maybe she should have slept with martin lawerence charchter instead. Robin givins is not as fine as halle. So if im marcus im going straight for angela. Who waa liking him from the get go. Thats why when jacquline told angela that his reputation was totally warrented. Angela was totally attracted to Marcus the first time she met him. She wanted King dingling and she got him on that couch. If i was eddie i would have wanted to have that sex scene on camera. These women knew exactlly what they were getting. Women know who they will give to and who they wont give to! Women are total players themselves. Thats why i analze every situation for what it is. Either she feeling me or is she not! Marcus should have used angela to make jacqueline jealous from the beginning at he would have got both of them. Its like Iceburg slim say women are competive as hell. It always works. Be friendly with one and the other one will get jealous. Espically if she sexy enough. Aint no women gonna think deep down that another women is as skilled as she is! Its the power of one over the other. If you sling it good to one she going to tell her friends all about it. Just sit back and wait. You see strange wanted it!!😊
Absolute Classic ❤ I definitely watched it too young and appreciated it when I was older! Getting older means realizing the real “villain” and/or fool was Marcus and Jacqueline was only villainous when she tried to get back with him knowing he was with Angela. The cast is absolutely STACKED and so talented! I definitely agree that Angela was too good for Marcus but at the same time idk what my home girl expected knowing he was a playa 😂Miss 90’s black films ❤ Please react to Coming to America if you can !
I feel like Angela suffered from "Icanchangehimitis" lol Because she started out as a friend, she just knew he would be different for her. She was so wrong and unfortunately received the Marcus treatment. She should have left him for good! lol I have been putting off reacting to Coming to America because ya'll will hate my guts!!! 😂😂 I cannot watch that movie without reciting every line! It is my favorite movie of all time!
@@SistaGurlonFilms 💯 agree! And SAME for Coming to America! It’s my all time FAV alongside Friday!!Reciting the lines scene by scene will only make me respect you MORE girl !!😂😂😂!
You know, I always thought that too. But, when I rewatch - Jacqueline had asked Marcus about Angela, but he said she had just stopped by. He didn't say he was with her - he made a point to make it sound like he was single. Did she know he was with Angela?
@@xejelah hey :) there’s a scene in the movie once Angela and Marcus get together and they work on the successful marketing campaign for Strange where they’re sitting in the boardroom glancing affectionately at each other after showing the new campaign and Jacqueline turns around and notices… I think she definitely knew at that point. It’s still Marcus’s fault because he was a dog lol but I definitely think Jacqueline had no qualms about getting back with him, knowing that there was something going on with him and Angela.
Boomerang is such a classic movie that I love so much. There’s not one single bad person in this movie just people who are not perfect. Marcus is still a good guy that had some lessons to learn. You should react to Juice from 1992.
I agree, there are no bad people in this. It's hard to call anyone the villain. I wouldn't say Marcus is a good guy but he is a work in progress lol Juice is definitely on the list! I'm just waiting to see if it'll come back to streaming anytime soon
Great reaction! And no, Marcus didn't deserve her back. Lol😂 However, based on the fact that she said she was not moving her stuff back into Marcus's place, I got the impression that she was going to make him work for her trust this time around, and that she would be a lot more firm with him regarding her expectations.
Thank you for watching!!! And I hope Angela made him earn her love! Marcus did too much and is lucky she didn't bear mace him when he showed up to that office 😂😂
This movie really is one of the best that came out of The Black renaissance from the 90s (Tv and movies). It’s even better watching this movie as an adult. I was rooting for the women in this movie 👏🏾. So many beautiful Black women in this movie too 🥰
i love how conversational your reactions are. i could go on and on and on about all the things that make this channel so good, but what would i have to say next week? ☺️
Thank you so much!!! The number definitely discourages me sometimes, but then I remember it's the quality of the subscribers not the quantity and you guys are AMAZING!!!!
If Marcus was Jerrard then the movie would not upset so many women. Its a funny watch as a man who is married 23 years and counting. I do get some womens anger at this character and it is amusing but i enjoyed the reaction. Its a great film with great characters without a man dressed as a woman to tell a story that is relatable.
Love this movie. One of my all time favorite ABC movies. We definitely need more of these “it’s all love” movies with no issues. Give me a love story or comedy and I’m a happy lady. Love your reactions😂😂
I came across this movie a year ago while going through movies with Hallie berry in it and loved it. It's refreshing and paints the black community in a successful light. I was born in 92 so I love looking at the fashion and style of the times. Just wondering how old are you? I just found your channel and love your reactions.
Thank you for watching!!!!! I'm a 80's baby so this movie was really impactful for me and seeing that Black people in this light at an impressionable age made me fall in love with this movie
@@SistaGurlonFilms Thank you so much for responding! I asked your age because if you were a kid did you have to sneak watch the movie? I ask because its rated R. Or were your parents cool with it? I know I had to sneak watch some things as a kid.😀
12:39 it was at that moment when the grip of reality was settling in, and maybe Marcus should have checked the chain of command before thinking he could sleep his way to the top. He slept with the now considered mascot of the company😂. Bless his heart. Marcus done ran up in Lady Eloise for what exactly?? The start of a downhill slope.😂
Great review/ recap. I love this movie. Shout out to Ms. Kitt who looked great until the end. Marcus was turning tricks for nothing. You rewatches are my favorite. I find myself laughing and talking back to you like you can hear me 😆.
Turning tricks for NOTHING!!! 😂😂😂 I am so happy to hear that you are talking back to me while watching the video because in my mind everyone is watching like 😐😂😂😂. Thank you for getting it!! ❤️❤️
25:58 lol Marcus like I’m gonna show you how I would work ya if let me with those dance moves😂 and Jacqueline was ready for it. But again Jaqueline being the superior one in this game of chess is working through strategy. Marcus is all emotions and lost at this point, though he thinks he’s winning
When Angela opened her 👀 in Marcus's 🛏️ after he snuck in gave me goosebumps and still do with that creepy second music that proved 😢she was in pain waiting for him playing possum got him to be sneaky and he outsmarted himself she must've felt the vibration on the bed when he got in it . Angela was furious and from that moment on she was probably IS the first woman to confront him about his philanderous ways.
I never understood why people do that! More than likely their partner stayed up very late waiting on them! They know you weren't there when they went to sleep so sneaking in makes absolutely no sense. Marcus better be glad Angela didn't do him like Brandy did Darnell in Thin Line lol
26:22 I’m watching his a**. SOMETHING about to go DOWN because no way…like I’m side eye watching this dude half the night, I wanna see if he gonna show out(goofy) or he gonna show out(in which I need to know when to exit left quick).
Right because those are absolutely the only 2 options for a man in the club with a suit on! Option A) Gangsta hitman 2) Catdaddy! There is no middle ground 😂😂
This film had a black excellence cast which most of the cat members were famous or well known. It wasnt eddie murphy with a bunch of unknowns. It sad we dont get enough of these type of black films with an all black ensemble cast and its a shame eddie kinda got stopped continuing these type of films he started with Harlem Nights to Boomerang and ended with Life which he managed to get done while doing the soft eddie movies he started to do to pay the rent.
I also feel like Eddie Murphy was a huge part of the reason that a lot of those star-studded movies were made. He made it a point to highlight comedians and put his comedian friends on. Now days I feels like many of these celebrities are in competition with each other and aren't for collaboration. But I'm also a Eddie Murphy fangirl so I could be biased lol
@@SistaGurlonFilms He was thats why they stopped him. He was employing too many of our folks. Early pat of his career he was the black man in a wite world but being two steps ahead. Then beginning with Coming To America it was a black cast from then on. But that incident he got himself in he went back to doing the stuff he did before coming to america and then family movies because they had something on him. Life was the last movie he got out there that was in line with boomerang and harlem nights. As for casting he also got his family members involved but more behind the scenes then in front of the camera with the exception of his late great brother charlie murphy. Like the wayans but in reverse.
The scene with Grace Jones were my favorite ones sooo funny..she was so funny and played it very well and everyone else was funny too i would've lived to have seen the out takes
I LOVE REACTING TO THIS WITH YOU MY BEAUTIFUL RARE QUEEN 👑♥️♥️♥️ SUCH A CLASSIC COMEDY 💞💞 HALLE BERRY WAS GORGEOUS IN THIS MOVIE I DIDN'T CARE FOR RIBBON GIVENS IN THIS MOVIE 🎥 YOU BE MY RIBBON GIVENS THO LOL 😆😁 ♥️
Halle was definitely giving the gorgeous, sweet, innocent woman that you do not approach unless you are ready to settle down. Marcus should have left her alone until he was ready to be serious
Its ironic, from a Mans viewpoint, Jackalyn would be considered the "Beta" woman & Angela the "Alpha" woman, if you use the criteria they use for Men,Why? Angela embodies everything Men want and she is the embodiment of femininity for women. Jackalyn on the other hand is trying to mirror what she seen what Men are and be in the corporate setting, thus taking on what MEN see as masculine traits in an attempt to match Marcuss energy. Angela was always the winner here and thats the point of the movie they say it over and over again, Marcus was looking for perfection of a woman and didn't realize it was right in front of him the entire time.
Love your review and all but uhruh... sometimes a man gotta do whatever it takes! If Pam Greer told me to "drop em young man" I would have no choice but say "yes ma'am" and do as I'm told
@@JesseJ.Speigner True but the character; Angela was naive and not privy to the game that Marcus and Jacqueline were playing. After she learned the lesson, she should have left them alone to do what they do.
23:37 He over it. All that suave showmanship slippin right out the window. The more I watch this movie, the more I’m wondering how was Marcus this “playa”. His picks must how been low grade no challenges but even then…Marcus wasn’t catching signs of nothin😂
Thank you!!!! I was thinking the same thing!! He was just average! His game was not good for real, he wasn't especially rich, dressed terribly...Like, he was not giving playa to me 😂😂
You think they would do a good job remaking this? Hollywood has lost my trust when it comes to remakes but with the right team, they might be able to pull it off
24:52 See like here, clearly in her own little way ol girl was giving him the vibes. But nooooo!!!! He got see this mission to the end(well…speaking as a dude…uhmm..yeah…that happens.) 😂😂 straight tunnel vision sometimes
She definitely was! They were really trying to make Halle Berry like the dowdy, not traditionally pretty woman in this 🙄. There is no world where Halle Berry is flirting with a hetero Man and he is not shooting his shot ASAP! Especially 90's Halle Berry!!! Puhlease! 😂😂
26:11 Not in the year of our lord 2023😂😂😂?? Yeah if you got a suit on in the club, I’m pretty sure you rocking that Brute or that Coolwater cologne going. Just enough chest hair out with a gold chain tangled all in it. 😂😂😂😂 well as a black man it use to rock that way, when I was younger and see the old pimps up in the club.
That is a great suggestion! I haven't watched that in a long time! I'm thinking about doing Mad Max this time in honor of Tina Turner and then I'll definitely do Beverly Hills Cop after that! Thank you!
why would woman not want to take care of their feet or want to take care of their feminine features? Men are not or never been known for having pretty feet. Also Robin was a gold digger in real life and her and her mother publicly tried to embarrass Mike Tyson so her being targeted was kind of her own doing.
When did feet become a "feminine feature"? Are women the only ones who have feet? Like, what does that even mean?? And aside from general maintenance, the shape and appearance of your toes is mostly genetic and out of someone's control with the exception of surgical procedures. It's a ridiculous requirement and qualifier for women 🙄
To be fair Angela got with a known player and was surprised she got played.
Very true
EXACTLY....She got what she deserved
...girl..that's us females!
Of course that's without nuance. Marcus had never moved in with anyone before. They were clearly dating for awhile for all of her things to be there. Marcus was telling everyone he changed.

Boomerang was a magnificent character study into the type of woman men chose to be their wife. And the type of woman that wins the husband in the end.
Yes, also a great character study on how women no matter what type, all seem to be attracted to and want the same type of Man.

The best thing about this movie is how everyone is used well, no ones role is wasted in this film. Great reaction.

Getting older means realizing the real “villain” and/or fool was Marcus and Jacqueline was only villainous when she tried to get back with him knowing he was with Angela. The cast is absolutely STACKED and so talented! I definitely agree that Angela was too good for Marcus but at the same time idk what my home girl expected knowing he was a playa 😂Miss 90’s black films ❤ Please react to Coming to America if you can !
I feel like Angela suffered from "Icanchangehimitis" lol Because she started out as a friend, she just knew he would be different for her. She was so wrong and unfortunately received the Marcus treatment. She should have left him for good! lol
I have been putting off reacting to Coming to America because ya'll will hate my guts!!! 😂😂 I cannot watch that movie without reciting every line! It is my favorite movie of all time!
@@SistaGurlonFilms 💯 agree! And SAME for Coming to America! It’s my all time FAV alongside Friday!!Reciting the lines scene by scene will only make me respect you MORE girl !!😂😂😂!
You know, I always thought that too. But, when I rewatch - Jacqueline had asked Marcus about Angela, but he said she had just stopped by. He didn't say he was with her - he made a point to make it sound like he was single. Did she know he was with Angela?
@@xejelah hey :) there’s a scene in the movie once Angela and Marcus get together and they work on the successful marketing campaign for Strange where they’re sitting in the boardroom glancing affectionately at each other after showing the new campaign and Jacqueline turns around and notices… I think she definitely knew at that point.
It’s still Marcus’s fault because he was a dog lol but I definitely think Jacqueline had no qualms about getting back with him, knowing that there was something going on with him and Angela.
I used to always get the ungly feet woman and the robin givens character confused.
Now that you mention it, they do favor a little bit!
Boomerang is such a classic movie that I love so much. There’s not one single bad person in this movie just people who are not perfect. Marcus is still a good guy that had some lessons to learn. You should react to Juice from 1992.
I agree, there are no bad people in this. It's hard to call anyone the villain. I wouldn't say Marcus is a good guy but he is a work in progress lol
Juice is definitely on the list! I'm just waiting to see if it'll come back to streaming anytime soon
Great reaction! And no, Marcus didn't deserve her back. Lol😂 However, based on the fact that she said she was not moving her stuff back into Marcus's place, I got the impression that she was going to make him work for her trust this time around, and that she would be a lot more firm with him regarding her expectations.
Thank you for watching!!! And I hope Angela made him earn her love! Marcus did too much and is lucky she didn't bear mace him when he showed up to that office 😂😂
Debate about what was better Soundtrack or movie. Great movie, Great soundtrack!
Waiting to Exhale, Boomerang, Love Jones
This movie really is one of the best that came out of The Black renaissance from the 90s (Tv and movies). It’s even better watching this movie as an adult.
I was rooting for the women in this movie 👏🏾. So many beautiful Black women in this movie too 🥰
Yes!!! It is really just a good, fun watch! And the amount of gorgeous Black women in this movie is so wonderful to see!
I love this movie 🎥🍿 ... My favorite part is with Grace Jones at the restaurant lmao 😂 . Great reaction 👍
Yes!! She said the P word way too many times, so I ended up cutting that part short. You know YT is strict but I was laughing so hard at that part!
i love how conversational your reactions are. i could go on and on and on about all the things that make this channel so good, but what would i have to say next week? ☺️
OMG Thank you!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I really want it to feel like you're watching the movie with a friend!
@@SistaGurlonFilms very much like a friend. authentic and genuine. the number of subscribers do not reflect the quality of the content.
Thank you so much!!! The number definitely discourages me sometimes, but then I remember it's the quality of the subscribers not the quantity and you guys are AMAZING!!!!
still a good reaction though
Nelson was also on the Original Annie movie as Punjab. From Annie to Nasty Nelson 😂😂
3:38 he should’ve known with that laugh what nasty Nelson was up to.
Exactly!!! I mean the man calls himself Nasty Nelson! 😂😂
I’m so glad you mention how Robin was villainized because that’s so true. Meanwhile the actual villain got a whole career resurgence. Smh.
Straight out of prison too smh
If Marcus was Jerrard then the movie would not upset so many women. Its a funny watch as a man who is married 23 years and counting. I do get some womens anger at this character and it is amusing but i enjoyed the reaction. Its a great film with great characters without a man dressed as a woman to tell a story that is relatable.
agree especially on the man dressed as a woman part. We dont need that at all
13:57 yeah, it’s something about her role in this movie. I was hooked
It's the girl next door thing for sure!
Love this movie. One of my all time favorite ABC movies. We definitely need more of these “it’s all love” movies with no issues. Give me a love story or comedy and I’m a happy lady. Love your reactions😂😂
Yes!!! We haven't had an all star ensemble cast romantic comedy in a long time!
7:25 the look
That's the "You are full of sh*t" look 😂😂
I came across this movie a year ago while going through movies with Hallie berry in it and loved it. It's refreshing and paints the black community in a successful light. I was born in 92 so I love looking at the fashion and style of the times. Just wondering how old are you? I just found your channel and love your reactions.
Thank you for watching!!!!! I'm a 80's baby so this movie was really impactful for me and seeing that Black people in this light at an impressionable age made me fall in love with this movie
@@SistaGurlonFilms Thank you so much for responding! I asked your age because if you were a kid did you have to sneak watch the movie? I ask because its rated R. Or were your parents cool with it? I know I had to sneak watch some things as a kid.😀
Lady Elouise puttìng the "Catwoman" charms on Marcus.
She may be old....but she's WAAAAAAAY better looking than Grandma Klump. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Boy they had that boy Eddie caked up in makeup in this movie.
You noticed that too?! It's dang near worse than Vampire in Brooklyn 😒😂😂
48:42 snap 🤨
12:39 it was at that moment when the grip of reality was settling in, and maybe Marcus should have checked the chain of command before thinking he could sleep his way to the top. He slept with the now considered mascot of the company😂. Bless his heart. Marcus done ran up in Lady Eloise for what exactly?? The start of a downhill slope.😂
Right! That's like sleeping with Minnie Mouse because you want a Board position with Disney! 😂😂
10:07 those are nice legs…but come on Marcus😂😂😂. Man when he find out that’s all for nothin😢. OH MAN😂😂
When he found out Lady Eloise had no power, that was hilarious to me!! Like why was sleeping with her even an option??? 😂😂😂
3:19 he does
3:55 "Wait a minute!" 😆😆😆
😂😂 Like how is that selling the lipstick! We need to see it on your lips, not between them!
Great review/ recap. I love this movie. Shout out to Ms. Kitt who looked great until the end. Marcus was turning tricks for nothing. You rewatches are my favorite. I find myself laughing and talking back to you like you can hear me 😆.
Turning tricks for NOTHING!!! 😂😂😂 I am so happy to hear that you are talking back to me while watching the video because in my mind everyone is watching like 😐😂😂😂. Thank you for getting it!! ❤️❤️
25:58 lol Marcus like I’m gonna show you how I would work ya if let me with those dance moves😂 and Jacqueline was ready for it. But again Jaqueline being the superior one in this game of chess is working through strategy. Marcus is all emotions and lost at this point, though he thinks he’s winning
Exactly! It was all about power and control for Jacqueline. She was a maneater lol
9:06 The butler like oh you a fool you.
Right!!! He has seen this happen way too many times! lol
When Angela opened her 👀 in Marcus's 🛏️ after he snuck in gave me goosebumps and still do with that creepy second music that proved 😢she was in pain waiting for him playing possum got him to be sneaky and he outsmarted himself she must've felt the vibration on the bed when he got in it . Angela was furious and from that moment on she was probably IS the first woman to confront him about his philanderous ways.
I never understood why people do that! More than likely their partner stayed up very late waiting on them! They know you weren't there when they went to sleep so sneaking in makes absolutely no sense. Marcus better be glad Angela didn't do him like Brandy did Darnell in Thin Line lol
26:22 I’m watching his a**. SOMETHING about to go DOWN because no way…like I’m side eye watching this dude half the night, I wanna see if he gonna show out(goofy) or he gonna show out(in which I need to know when to exit left quick).
Right because those are absolutely the only 2 options for a man in the club with a suit on! Option A) Gangsta hitman 2) Catdaddy! There is no middle ground 😂😂
This film had a black excellence cast which most of the cat members were famous or well known. It wasnt eddie murphy with a bunch of unknowns. It sad we dont get enough of these type of black films with an all black ensemble cast and its a shame eddie kinda got stopped continuing these type of films he started with Harlem Nights to Boomerang and ended with Life which he managed to get done while doing the soft eddie movies he started to do to pay the rent.
I also feel like Eddie Murphy was a huge part of the reason that a lot of those star-studded movies were made. He made it a point to highlight comedians and put his comedian friends on. Now days I feels like many of these celebrities are in competition with each other and aren't for collaboration. But I'm also a Eddie Murphy fangirl so I could be biased lol
@@SistaGurlonFilms He was thats why they stopped him. He was employing too many of our folks. Early pat of his career he was the black man in a wite world but being two steps ahead. Then beginning with Coming To America it was a black cast from then on. But that incident he got himself in he went back to doing the stuff he did before coming to america and then family movies because they had something on him. Life was the last movie he got out there that was in line with boomerang and harlem nights. As for casting he also got his family members involved but more behind the scenes then in front of the camera with the exception of his late great brother charlie murphy. Like the wayans but in reverse.
40:08 reverse it 🤣🤣🤣
"Whip that 😺" 😂😂😂
The scene with Grace Jones were my favorite ones sooo funny..she was so funny and played it very well and everyone else was funny too i would've lived to have seen the out takes
Grace Jones really stole each scene she was in! I had to edit the restaurant scene down for time and for the amount of times she said 🐱 😂😂
@@SistaGurlonFilms yes she did
I feel like she wasn’t acting. That’s Grace all day
16:47 Well he got the full essence of her sex. 😂😂😂 The look on his face through it all.
He felt so violated!!😂 Now had that happened to Nasty Nelson, they would have announced "clean up on aisle 4" 😂😂
@@SistaGurlonFilms I could hear him now “Ahhhhhh Marvelous!!!!!!” You know he sat in his office and sniffed at the panties for a long while. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yesss!!! And put them in his pocket!! 😂😂😂
But her character one of the empty shells, very pretty but naive as hell. Simple game lay down.
Am I the only one who truly ENJOYED....Your version of John W. "BANG BANG BANG BANG" ??? Rewinding
I LOVE REACTING TO THIS WITH YOU MY BEAUTIFUL RARE QUEEN 👑♥️♥️♥️ SUCH A CLASSIC COMEDY 💞💞 HALLE BERRY WAS GORGEOUS IN THIS MOVIE I DIDN'T CARE FOR RIBBON GIVENS IN THIS MOVIE 🎥 YOU BE MY RIBBON GIVENS THO LOL 😆😁 ♥️
Halle was definitely giving the gorgeous, sweet, innocent woman that you do not approach unless you are ready to settle down. Marcus should have left her alone until he was ready to be serious
@@SistaGurlonFilms YES EXACTLY WELL SAID QUEEN 👑♥️ I LIKE MY BLACK QUEENZ 👑❤️ ANYWAY THAT WHITE WOULDN'T STOOD A CHANCE LOVE 😘
Its ironic, from a Mans viewpoint, Jackalyn would be considered the "Beta" woman & Angela the "Alpha" woman, if you use the criteria they use for Men,Why? Angela embodies everything Men want and she is the embodiment of femininity for women. Jackalyn on the other hand is trying to mirror what she seen what Men are and be in the corporate setting, thus taking on what MEN see as masculine traits in an attempt to match Marcuss energy. Angela was always the winner here and thats the point of the movie they say it over and over again, Marcus was looking for perfection of a woman and didn't realize it was right in front of him the entire time.
🌬 messing up my high again!😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Love your review and all but uhruh... sometimes a man gotta do whatever it takes!
If Pam Greer told me to "drop em young man" I would have no choice but say "yes ma'am" and do as I'm told
😂😂😂 understandable
47:47 i would watch your reenactment of movie scenes. that was great. and funny.
play to the camera more 🙂
😂😂😂
She like f**k a court order. 😂
😂😂😂
46:29 "Duh." 🤨🙂
I was 17 and with Carla Lewis (Carl Lewis younger sister). I was a complete gentleman with her and we definitely laughed at some of the scenes.
49:32 coming in weak
Right! "I miss you" that's all you got?!
33:40 See that’s both our gift and curse, it don’t take much. 😂😂 want us to forgive you for something…and don’t take much at all.
Damn Shame! 😂😂😂
It rakes two the women arent innocent
Angela was absolutely innocent
@@SistaGurlonFilms I'm talking in terms of intimacy/morality she has agency and is in control over who enters her temple
@@JesseJ.Speigner True but the character; Angela was naive and not privy to the game that Marcus and Jacqueline were playing. After she learned the lesson, she should have left them alone to do what they do.
23:37 He over it. All that suave showmanship slippin right out the window. The more I watch this movie, the more I’m wondering how was Marcus this “playa”. His picks must how been low grade no challenges but even then…Marcus wasn’t catching signs of nothin😂
Thank you!!!! I was thinking the same thing!! He was just average! His game was not good for real, he wasn't especially rich, dressed terribly...Like, he was not giving playa to me 😂😂
28:47 Boy Marcus nose…whew his nose so wide open. Then POW she stopped that in the tracks. Saw how he tried to tighten back up.
Right! But it was too late for all that! She knew she had him right where she wanted him!
8:27 the audacity
They need to make a good remake of this a good one with a real budget not that quick low quality crap
You think they would do a good job remaking this? Hollywood has lost my trust when it comes to remakes but with the right team, they might be able to pull it off
I feel like they can if they get the right cast and put some money behind it
24:52 See like here, clearly in her own little way ol girl was giving him the vibes. But nooooo!!!! He got see this mission to the end(well…speaking as a dude…uhmm..yeah…that happens.) 😂😂 straight tunnel vision sometimes
She definitely was! They were really trying to make Halle Berry like the dowdy, not traditionally pretty woman in this 🙄. There is no world where Halle Berry is flirting with a hetero Man and he is not shooting his shot ASAP! Especially 90's Halle Berry!!! Puhlease! 😂😂
6:05 Damn, he said it was whack 😅😅😅😅😅
Right!!! She must have been trying too hard to get with him! Marcus didn't like the women being too aggressive and Yvonne was definitely that! lol
35:45 😆
😂😂😂
Great reaction beautiful.
Thank you for watching!!! 💕💕
26:11 Not in the year of our lord 2023😂😂😂?? Yeah if you got a suit on in the club, I’m pretty sure you rocking that Brute or that Coolwater cologne going. Just enough chest hair out with a gold chain tangled all in it. 😂😂😂😂 well as a black man it use to rock that way, when I was younger and see the old pimps up in the club.
that description just gave me Spice Adams 😂😂😂
1:31 everybody is in this!
Yes!!!! And there were people I forgot to mention!
I worked with a lot of celebrities and Robin Givens was by far the sweetest. Like literally just a girl. Misogyny is a wild boy!
I feel like she was misrepresented in the media back then. She was painted to be an awful diva and folks believed it (myself included unfortunately)
Since you’re reacting to Eddie Murphy movies, would you be willing to react to Beverly Hills Cop? I’d love to hear your thoughts on it!
That is a great suggestion! I haven't watched that in a long time! I'm thinking about doing Mad Max this time in honor of Tina Turner and then I'll definitely do Beverly Hills Cop after that! Thank you!
27:33 i love you. 😆
😂😂😂 I had to go there!
15:20 Hooked. Lined. and Sunk. Boy she working game all over him.
And he was so arrogant that he couldn't see he was being played!
@8:05 lol I don’t get the comparison do women like men to have pretty feet?
It's about the hypocrisy of wanting something in a partner that you don't have
5:24 if it was morris chestnut you would 😍
Not even for him...now for Laz Alonso....I would have given him my dog 😂😂😂
Great reaction and movie
Thank you for watching!!
@@SistaGurlonFilms np
Yeah, 90s grit face and all 2:06 😅😅
Right! 😂😂
why would woman not want to take care of their feet or want to take care of their feminine features? Men are not or never been known for having pretty feet. Also Robin was a gold digger in real life and her and her mother publicly tried to embarrass Mike Tyson so her being targeted was kind of her own doing.
When did feet become a "feminine feature"? Are women the only ones who have feet? Like, what does that even mean?? And aside from general maintenance, the shape and appearance of your toes is mostly genetic and out of someone's control with the exception of surgical procedures. It's a ridiculous requirement and qualifier for women 🙄
