Bille Woodruff's vehicle starring Queen Latifah is the same Latifah movie vehicle you see with the typical stereotypes,but overall I liked it, I got to admit. Gina is the hairstylist starting her own beauty shop, enter her racist and inept former boss, Jorge comes back to wreak havoc on Gina because he tried to steal her credit for her work. There's a nice storyline with Gina and her young daughter whose taking music lessons to get to a special school was lovely. Critics who panned this movie don't know anything I guess they're not expecting a multicultural audience to think about some of the ideas and realities in the movie. The world is racist, its still a white man's world. Gina has her shop destroyed because Jorge cant stand her success. There's a white girl Lynn (Alicia Silverstone) who wants to be black, whats the harm in that? I like rap music, anything wrong with that? No. It certainly it shows that I love some of things the black culture has shared with our very narrowminded society. Yes Lynn's character is dumb and ditzy to some but I took her as just being happy go lucky. I thought Queen Latifah's acting was pretty good, always believable, even shes rich and all she still how to portray a ghetto character trying to make ends meat. I really loved Andie MacDowell's character as Terri, a woman who opens up and joins the beauty shop as a regular customer. Mena Suvari steals the show though as overbearing rich * of a client, Joanne who basically thinks the world is hers and everyone should obey her orders, if you don't you die. Here's actually part of the give and take of the strong where snobby critics fail to mention. Since Joanne is a rich client obviously she can make or break Gina, knowing this she abuses Gina with insults and still expects her to service her. This is like the whole master /slave thing that still apparent today or at another level the division between two classes, the rich and the poor, who still exploit their disadvantages. Eventually Gina has to make a decision become the source of abuse for this rich white client or does she tell her to go to hell and pay the price. I really loved Queen Latifah in this movie, I think a lot of these roles really shine a like as whats it like in the Urban City when you have many people seeing your poor and working hard to make a living basically beat you down and try to keep you there just because they can. Someone said Kevin Bacon was great but I thought he was crap, he just played some prick of a person who like Joanne doesn't care who he hurts as long as they get what they want in the end. I am glad he gets his punishment at the end The audience I saw this with a good mix of every culture pretty much loved the movie and I liked it too. Anyhow I give this movie a good thumbs up. 7 out of 10

This was certainly the right choice for me. I laughed my ass off. Yes, it wasn't as funny as the Barber Shop movies, but this was a shop all in it's own. Quite different from the male atmosphere. Kevin Bacon could not have been better. He really pulled this off. There was a white person in a predominately black atmosphere which was a copy of the Barber Shop. But believe me, they were two different extremes of white. The plot was lacking but I did laugh the whole way through. This is a movie for pure entertainment, not one to make you think about what is coming next. I would recommend this one for anyone who wants to laugh. Oh, and brace yourself for the vendor who comes to the shop with her fish!!! Excellent!

Well this one you will either love it or hate it. A lot of how anyone enjoys a film is based on what they are expecting to see. This is only the 2nd movie I have ever walked out of and got a refund in 30 years. Both times it was because I was expecting one thing and arrived to find something entirely different and distasteful to me personally. I would not have purchased the ticket if I had known it had non-stop foul language, foul jokes, young children making sexual innuendos to adults, women slang talking about sex both in the shop and on the radio to each other. For me I find that kind of humor distasteful and demeaning to the characters involved in it. I understand that people that enjoy that kind of humor will find this movie very entertaining

This movie is a spin-off sequel to Barberer Shop 2: Back in Business. Gina is a hairstylist who opens up a beauty shop full of employees and customers more interested in speaking their minds than getting a cut. Latifah does it again! Her charm lights up the screen. Gina's business starts off bad. Her own shop just looks bad. Luckily, her friends help her clean up the place and that's where she hires employees. She gets one of her white friends in the other shop to help her work there. Some of her black friends comes to help. This is one of those comedies that doesn't uses f-words. The acting from Latifah, Woodard, Silverstone, and Bacon are great. Actually, I've never seen Bacon act like that in his entire film career. It's funny to see that. Bacon's character then gets jealous because Gina is doing much better than he has expected. The jokes are funny in this film. If you just want to see a feel-good film, here it is!

This amusing little movie appeals to a wide range with its comfortable humor, racy but utterly inoffensive conversation, and its roots in Disney-style family values (but for the real world). Queen Latifah does a relaxed and amiable job of tying the film together, and the ensemble cast is sweet and funny. I was impressed with Alicia Silverstone's turn as a geeky little white country girl--it's the first time she hasn't been playing off a well-to-do type and she carries it off. We had a nice relaxing time of it while we were watching, and half an hour later I've forgotten most of it--but that's just fine. Means I can pop it in the DVD player later on, enjoy it, and not remember a word.

I am not black. I am not a woman. I have never had a weave or extensions, and I try to stay out of the ghetto as much as possible. Yet I got a kick out of Beauty Shop for some reason??? The script itself is not all that strong, but the performances by QL and the rest of the ensemble cast are watchable and engaging. Props to Kevin Bacon. His outrageous and flamboyant Jorge' is a nice departure from his other roles and he comes across as quite convincing in the part. The movie only gets 3 stars from me because the storyline is quite conventional and played out. However, for the most part the jokes are funny and the actors deliver them nicely.... so tack on an extra star for that. While it won't win any awards, "Beauty Shop" is pure mindless fun.

More of a spin-off movie than it is a sequel to 2002 and 2004's Barbershop movies; Beauty Shop comes to us as the female rendition of the popular franchise. Beauty Shop gives us the return of Gina, played by Queen Latifah, from the second Barbershop movie. Gina has moved away from Chicago to Atlanta so her daughter can attend a prestigious music school. She has made a name for herself at a posh European-style salon owned by the famous hairstylist Jorge. After a scuffle with her boss, Gina decides to quit her job and achieve her dream of owning her own beauty shop. She brings with her, a few loyal customers along with another worker at the salon. With the help of her family and the electrician slash romantic interest who lives above the shop, Gina finds success with her beauty salon. The cast of Beauty shop follows the same formula as the barbershop movies. There's the obvious ice cube parallel with Queen Latifah's Gina. The older and wiser stylist, the male form of Cedric the Entertainer's character, played by Alfre Woodard who quotes the wisdom of Maya Angelou to her customers. The token white worker is present with Alicia Silverstone, and the one opposite sex worker played by Eve in the barbershop has her counter part with Bryce Wilson's James. Also included in the film is everyone's favorite Huxtable, Keisha Knight Pullian, famous as Rudy Huxtable. And lastly, quite possibly my favorite part of the movie and funniest character in the movie, Kevin Bacon is hilarious as the egocentric Jorge. The cast works very well together and the fun they had while making the film shows in each scene. While the cast is fun to watch, I still felt as though something in the film was missing. When watching Barbershop, that classic old town feel emits throughout the show. The characters are so fun to watch as we see their relationships with each other and their own personalities work and clash with each other. While watching Beauty shop, while the characters were fun to watch interact with each other, that feeling just isn't the same when you walk out. I left feeling somewhat unfulfilled. However, after more reflection on the matter, I realized, that the mood of a beauty shop is no the same as the mood of a barbershop. Maybe I didn't feel the same, because, well, I'm not a woman. As with any television spin off, a movie spin off should be able to hold its own ground. It doesn't need to be a complete reference to its predecessor. Think of Frasier. One of the things that made the show so great was the fact that it held its on ground separate from Cheers. The same goes with Beauty Shop. Yes, it relies on a few references and relations to the barbershop movies, but other than that, it completely holds its own. Which, as I thought about it, made it more enjoyable to know that I wasn't watching the same movie in female form. Beauty Shop is a fun movie to watch with a very solid cast. Queen Latifah does a fine job as Gina and makes and, more or less, makes up for her involvement with last year's Taxi. If for anything else, see the movie for Kevin Bacon, you wont be disappointed. Beauty shop is pretty enjoyable and is the closest to a hair cut ill come to. I give it 3 stars.(out of 5)

While it is a spin-off of Barber Shop, it is not a sequel. Feel-good movie that keeps you laughing. Good comedy that actually has a plot and story line. The advanced screening I saw was full of all types of people, and everyone was laughing at many points throughout the movie. Kevin Bacon, Alica Silverstone, Andy McDowell were strong supporting actors playing unpredictable roles - great casting. Some confusing parts about the relationship of the "mother-in-law and her daughter." Sometimes you think, who is she and how are they related again. But other than that... much enjoyment.
