Synopsis
Booty Call is about a tender-hearted, upwardly-mobile African American named Rushon (Tommy Davidson) who has been dating his girlfriend Nikki (Tamala Jones) for several weeks. They really like each other, but their relationship has thus far been purely platonic; Nikki is not so sure if their relationship is ready for the next stage.
Rushon asks Nikki out to dinner, but Nikki wants it to be a double date. She brings her opinionated friend Lysterine (Vivica A. Fox), and Rushon comes with his "bad boy" buddy Bunz (Jamie Foxx). Lysterine and Bunz hit it off very quickly, and to Rushon's surprise, Nikki decides it is time for their relationship to move to the next level. However, they have one small problem: this is the 90s, and everyone wants to practice "safe sex." Therefore, Rushon and Bunz must go on wild adventures trying to find "protection" before the evening's mood evaporates.
This movie is noted for Jamie Foxx's raunchy impersonation of African-American leaders such as Jesse Jackson and Bill Cosby. Also, there are rarely seen dialogues between Blacks and Asian Americans in the film.
