Beauty Shop

Alfre Woodard, Alicia Silverstone, Andie MacDowell, Djimon Hounsou, James 'Lil'JJ' Lewis

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. Bu...( read more  read more... )t 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.

    Fun, harmless and forgettable: the trifecta for a Saturday morning movie. Entertaining and cute, cliché and never too good or too bad to make you whine about watching it, perfect when there's nothing better on TV.

    I have just one complain: is there something Kevin Bacon <...( read more)I>won't do for money? I mean, seriously...

    After being pushed by Jorge one too many times, Gina buys a dilapidated beauty salon in southwest Atlanta and tries to make it on her own. She brings a sweet country bumpkin shampoo girl named Lynn (Alicia Silverstone, Clueless) with her from Jorge's, because she sees that Lynn h...( read more)as skills beyond shampooing. She also inherits some of the shop's previous stylists Miss Josephine (Alfre Woodard, St. Elsewhere), Paulette (Laura Hayes, The Queens of Comedy), and Chanel (Golden Brooks, Girlfriends) all of whom are chock-full of attitude. A few of Jorge's clients follow her as well, including a cheated-upon Southern belle (Andie MacDowell) and a shallow, vapid trophy blonde (Mena Suvari, American Beauty). For eye candy, there's also a handsome upstairs neighbor who's also a good electrician (Djimon Hounsou, Amistad), and a hunky truck driver-turned-braider (Omari Hardwick). Needless to say, Jorge doesn't cotton to Gina's plans to compete with him, and decides to take action. This film has everything sexy black women, sexy white women, sexy black men, a sexy white man, sass, attitude, Rudy, catfish, dirty dancing, one degree of Kevin Bacon. Beauty Shop is a light, fun story of adversity overcome with exuberant talent and persistence.
