Beauty Shop (PG-13)

Quicklook Rating★★

synopsis

Leaving the Chicago crew behind, Gina Norris is a long way from the Barbershop -- she now lives in Atlanta and is making a name for herself and her cutting-edge hairstyles at a posh Southern salon. But when her flamboyant, egotistical boss, Jorge, takes it one criticism too far, she storms out of his salon to open a shop of her own, taking the shampoo girl and a few key clients with her. Gina risks it all to buy a rundown beauty shop and gets to work making it on her own, inheriting an opinionated group of headstrong stylists, a colorful clientele and a sexy upstairs electrician. It's a rocky road to fulfilling her dreams -- and Jorge does his best to ruin her plans -- but you can't keep a good woman down -- and you can't keep a shopful of outrageous women from speaking their minds.

MovieGoer Review

Beauty Shop, a mildly entertaining spin-off of the Barbershop films, is about a hardworking hairdresser who finally gets to open her own ghetto fabulous shop. However, the film doesn't have nearly the charm--or the laughs--as its mentor. MORE
