"Booty Call" is about a tender-hearted, upwardly-mobile
African American named Rushon (Davidson) who has been dating his girlfriend Nikki (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 (Fox), and Rushon comes with his "bad boy" buddy Bunz (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 impersonations of African American celebrities such as
Jesse Jackson ,Mike Tyson andBill Cosby .Tagline: "Some guys will do anything for a little something."
