So-so movie with great cast pushes PG-13 limits.

As in the other two movies, the plot is a thin cardboard box carrying an assortment of observational doughnuts.

Latifah carries the weight of this film and does an impressive job given a script that's crying out for a total restyle.

It's thin, Kate Lanier and Norman Vance Jr.'s screenplay is virtually nonexistent, and there isn't a single thing that happens I didn't see coming from over a mile away, and yet I still thoroughly enjoyed myself.

I thought this was too much like the pilot for a sitcom.

Mar 30, 2011OK, so what's the plot? A hair stylist (Queen Latifah) walks out on her boss (Kevin Bacon). Boss doesn't think she'll make it. She makes it while stealing all of his customers in a comedic process. Meets hot guy (Dimon Hounsou). Boss tries to get revenge. Yes, you have seen this movie before. It has a few funny moments, some of them not intentional, but Beauty Shop really is your standard, predictable, recycled film. File this one under "Been there, done that".Chris G Super Reviewer

May 09, 2010Gina (Queen Latifah) plays a sassy hairstylist whiz who feels under-appreciated by her arrogant racist boss, Jorge who wants to steal credit for her work. A single mother, she decides to open up her own beauty shop fulfilling her dreams in the process. Alicia Silverstone plays Lynn, a Georgia country girl who also happens to be a whiz at styling who goes along for the ride. Not a bad comedy and Queen Latifah is her usual witty fun self to watch.Deb S Super Reviewer
