''Retro Pop Magazine'' said "Betty Boo doesn't miss a beat as she bounces back with ''Boomerang''" saying "It's a nod to the past that touches on Betty Boo's career beginnings while placing her sound firmly in 2022, with an overarching sense of nostalgia that's in line with current chart trends."<ref name="RPM review"/>

Sal Cinquemani from ''[[Slant Magazine]]'' said "While it's adeptly produced and mixed, ''Boomerang'' lacks the bite of Clarkson's underrated debut, ''Boomania'', whose cartoonish pop-rap was shrewdly tempered by sleek, unassuming house tracks."<ref name="Slant review"/>
