What is, in effect, a wasted opportunity...

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 20, 2022

Mr Rock is one proud, if heartbroken, daddy and also a lovely, free-wheeling guide through African-American, Afro-hating hair culture.

| Aug 30, 2018

A slipshod doc about a fascinating subject.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 17, 2011

It's an eye-opener, if a blatantly chauvinistic one: Rock's main beefs seem to be that men have to pay for it, and upkeep of such a coveted accessory is a barrier to intimacy in the bedroom.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 30, 2010

All Christopher Guest-allusions aside, this is a crucial documentary about race and gender today.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 25, 2010

Despite dozens of interviews and Rock's personal agenda, this isn't the hard-hitting expose it should have been.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 24, 2010

Rock fronts this informative rummage through the $9 billion US black hair industry in a style much like his stand-up comedy: hilarious, insightful and charming enough to let him get away with the flammable stuff.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 24, 2010

It's just about sharp and funny enough to make you wish it was a bit sharper and funnier.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 24, 2010

Full of sweetly sardonic observations, the docu-comedy is one of the funniest movies of the year.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 23, 2009

Rock sheds new light on this old story through a poignant mix of interviews, investigation and his trademark satire.

| Oct 23, 2009

Hair is personal. It's also political.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 23, 2009

It's funny, clever and marginally educational. You can tell your friends you went to a documentary without having felt as if you saw one.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 23, 2009

It's rich food for thought, though you wonder why little attention is given to the idea that perhaps some women relax their hair because it's easier to style that way, or that elaborate attention to hair is hardly exclusive to black women.

If you arrive at Good Hair never having thought about the complexities of black hair, bring a notebook. If you are a black woman wearing a weave, bring a tissue.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 22, 2009

Good Hair is certainly no arid anthropological study. Rock's queries are loose and quippy, but his instincts are as sharp as an investigative journalist's.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 22, 2009

Some of this, a lot of this, is preaching to the choir. But it's still pretty compelling no matter what perspective you're coming from.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 21, 2009

Good Hair, directed by longtime Rock collaborator Jeff Stilson, is such a rollicking, thoroughly entertaining ride that it's easy to take for granted just how easy Rock makes it look.

| Oct 16, 2009

This entertaining exploration of black hair issues will get your dander up.

Full Review | Oct 16, 2009

The film succeeds as a vehicle for Rock's personality.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 16, 2009

It's more 온라인카지노추천 special material that theatrical release. But thanks to Rock's laid-back humour, Good Hair is also good entertainment.
