Beauty Shop

Diminishing returns continue for the Barbershop franchise with this third entry, in which Gina (Queen Latifah) heads from Chicago to Atlanta and opens her own salon. There is far more plot than necessary, but the shop itself features enough comic camaraderie among the stylists to forgive many of the movie’s weaknesses. When these ladies start talking, they offer what both their customers and moviegoers are looking for: the make-over as therapy.
