Barbershop
Synopsis: From the producers of Soul Food and director Tim Story (Ride Along) comes this warm, generous (The New York Times) tale about a Chicago barbershop where razor-sharp comedy never goes out of style! Starring Ice Cube (Ride Along), Anthony Anderson (Black-ish), Sean Patrick Thomas (Save The Last Dance), Eve (xXx), Cedric the Entertainer (Larry Crowne), Troy Garity (Ballers), Michael Ealy (The Perfect Guy) and Keith David (They Live), Barbershop is both a sweet, life-affirming movie (N.Y. Daily News) and outrageous, bust-a-gut fun! Calvin (Ice Cube) is a would-be entrepreneur with big plans and running his family's barbershop isn't one of them. But when he impulsively sells the shop to a shady loan shark, he soon realizes just how important the neighborhood parlor is to him and just how far he'll go to get it back!

Beauty Shop
Synopsis: Queen Latifah (Chicago) heads an excellent ensemble cast in this warm, funny, empowering (New York Post) comedy from the producers of Barbershop and the producer of Bringing Down the House! Co-starring Alicia Silverstone (Clueless), Andie MacDowell (Four Weddings and a Funeral), Alfre Woodard (12 Years a Slave), Mena Suvari (American Beauty) and Djimon Hounsou (Guardians of the Galaxy) and featuring Kevin Bacon (Patriot's Day) in a hilarious performance - Beauty Shop will slap a smile on your face and keep it there (Premiere)! When Jorge (Bacon), the egotistical boss at a posh salon, pushes his star stylist, Gina (Latifah), a hair too far, Gina leaves and opens a beauty shop of her own. Inheriting an opinionated group of stylists, a colorful clientele and a sexy upstairs neighbor, Gina proves that you can't keep a good woman down - and you can't keep a shopful of outrageous women from speaking their minds!
