Plot summary
Template:Spoiler Marcus Graham (Eddie Murphy), a hotshot advertising executive who's also an insatiable womanizer and male chauvinist. He is thus hardly prepared for his new boss Jacqueline, played by Robin Givens. In terms of things romantic, Jacqueline is nothing more or less than a female version of Marcus, and for the first time, Graham is getting the runaround.
