Starring Rachael Leigh Cook (SHE'S ALL THAT), Josh Hartnett (PEARL HARBOR), and Alan Rickman (GALAXY QUEST) in a great ensemble cast -- the Academy Award(R)- nominated writer of THE FULL MONTY has crafted a hilarious story about the things everyone wants in life: love, happiness, and great hair! As the National Hair Championships descend upon a small town in England, the country's top stylists aren't expecting much from the local talent. But they didn't count on Phil Allen (Rickman), the retired golden boy of the competition circuit, entering the fray! Also starring Natasha Richardson (THE PARENT TRAP), Rachel Griffiths (MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING), and supermodel Heidi Klum -- laugh along as the locals dazzle the out-of-towners with some hair dos ... and don'ts.

Summary: Blow Dry
Comment: One of the funniest movies, we watch it over and over. I am a cosmetologist and it cracks me up. Definitly a keeper.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Aaah, Alan Rickman
Comment: What a great movie. What a cast. They all worked so well together. Of course Alan Rickman can do no wrong in my mind. Buy it. You'll love it.

Summary: A Yorkshire Pudding treat!
Comment: I love this movie! It's got great actors - Alan Rickman, Natasha ichardson, Rachel Griffiths, Bill Nighy and Warren Clarke. They all use that lovely Yorkshire accent and lots of "summats", "nobbuts" and "nowts" - even Josh Hartnett's accent sounds authentic to this Anglophile. The movie has a naive sweetness to it that never gets old. There are a lot of descriptions of the plot here, so I won't go into it, but I laugh out loud everytime I watch it and finally bought, here on Amazon, because it's so hard to find. I've recommended to all my hairdresser friends

Summary: A Keeper Movie
Comment: This movie does what all movies should do. You are transported to another place by a sense of reality created by the believable characters, the sense of place, the intriguing situations and the drama. Now every so often I pop the DVD in and go back there. I think I like the transformation of the mayor best, from ordinary man to Elvis. It is little touches like this that make this movie one that merits rewatching. Other reviewers have touched on the salient points of the acting and said it better.
Customer Rating:
Summary: hardly noteworthy
Comment: A tremendously silly movie that's only remotely watchable because of Alan Rickman's tremendous talent to deliver any lie with dignity and intrigue. Unless you are a huge Rickman fan (which, of course, I am), you may skip this one without any guilt.
