So-so movie with great cast pushes PG-13 limits.
March 31, 2005
Its lackluster efforts to be raunchily topical about issues of race, class and sexuality leave its talented cast stranded without a paddle.
March 30, 2005
Feel-good entertainment that is no less enjoyable for being somewhat predictable.
April 12, 2010
As in the other two movies, the plot is a thin cardboard box carrying an assortment of observational doughnuts.

It's a bouncy, funny picture that I enjoyed -- one that mostly eludes the perils of sequelitis and spinoff-itis, a lusty comedy about the importance of looking good and getting the right scissors in the right hands.

Bille Woodruff directs the comedy with a warm generosity of spirit, which gives all the actors in a delightful ensemble cast their chance to shine.

It's meant to be a gender switch on its predecessor, but it's actually just a pale comparison.
June 20, 2007
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.

Take one part "Barbershop," one part Queen Latifah, sprinkle in a tablespoon of 'you-go-girl' and stir to get the confection of "Beauty Shop."
July 11, 2005
Diverting but overly episodic... never quite hangs together as a feature.
April 04, 2005
I thought this was too much like the pilot for a sitcom.
March 30, 2005
Latifah is, well, Latifah playing herself -- funny, brash, smart, likable and not willing to take any garbage from anyone.
