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.

This bottom-feeder's sophomoric, locker room approach to black-white, gay-straight, and male-female issues cannot be undone by a saccharine storybook ending.

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

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

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

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