Beauty Shop
Far from Chicago, hairdresser Gina Norris has relocated to Atlanta with her daughter and quickly establishes herself as a rare talent in her profession. But after repeatedly butting heads with her shady, over-the-top boss, Jorge, Norris sets out to create her own salon, even snagging a few of Jorge's employees and clients. Now, Jorge will do anything to shut her down.

It's a bouncy, funny picture that I enjoyed -- one that mostly eludes the perils of sequelitis and spinoff-itis, a lusty comedy about the importance of looking good and getting the right scissors in the right hands.

Latifah is, well, Latifah playing herself -- funny, brash, smart, likable and not willing to take any garbage from anyone.

Feel-good entertainment that is no less enjoyable for being somewhat predictable.

Take one part "Barbershop," one part Queen Latifah, sprinkle in a tablespoon of 'you-go-girl' and stir to get the confection of "Beauty Shop."

Diverting but overly episodic... never quite hangs together as a feature.

Bille Woodruff directs the comedy with a warm generosity of spirit, which gives all the actors in a delightful ensemble cast their chance to shine.
