Plot: While the men of Barbershop and Barbershop 2 have plenty to mouth off about, they may have met their match in the female staff and clientele of a nearby beauty shop. Directed by Bille Woodruff, Beauty Shop revolves around these women led by Gina (Queen Latifah), who opened Beauty Shop to give all the females in the community, from a conservative Southern socialite (Andie MacDowell) to a poetry-reciting stylist, a place to talk about life, love, and the issues of the day, all while getting their hair done. Bryce Wilson puts in a supporting performance, as does Kevin Bacon, who plays the snooty owner of a rival salon. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide

Great Movie!!!
Added 5/29/2009

I was pleasantly surprised this was a good movie!

It was one of those cute little films that made me want to watch it more than once. Queen Latifah did a great job in her role.

Bottom Line is this is a great feel good family fun movie!

Queen Latifah is always consistent and enjoyable to watch. However, she doesn't stretch herself much with this movie. This is strictly feel good but maybe too feel good - there just isn't enough oomph or bite in this hairdo to make it a killer comedy. It just glides along. Could've been much better but as the review above states, the characters are thin and there isn't much of a plot.

Mild disappointment
Added 6/6/2008

Could have been great, but it's just not, and not even a guilty pleasure like Barbershop. I found Q Latifah quite charming in Last Holiday, and her charisma holds up well in this and all other works. But the writing . . . my god, it's awful. A respectable actor like Djimon is reduced to the most ridiculous type of beefcake, while Andie M and Alicia S are consistently caught in embarassingly shallow moments. The stereotypes rage in abundance, while transcendent observations are almost nonexistent. Kevin Bacon's over-the-top performance is actually the most welcome performance and sets the proper comic tone, but unfortunately he is the exception, not the rule. The style is sharp, everybody's looking real good, it's not devoid of humor and has its moments, but the content is often horrible and so many degrees removed from a Spike Lee joint. Too bad.
