Chris Rock presents this documentary offering an insight into the fiercely competitive world of Afro-American hairdressing. The film includes a visit to the Bronner Brothers International Hair Show, the annual trade show for the African-American hair care industry. It also looks into the dangers of many common hair-straightening treatments, reveals the alarmingly high cost of regular hair 'relaxing' and weaves, and asks what the ongoing pursuit of straight hair says about African-American cultural identity.

Family comedy starring Ice Cube as Nick, a smooth operator who is interested in a young, attractive divorcee - Suzanne (Nia Long), mother of a 7-year-old-boy and an 11-year-old-girl. Trying to get together with Suzanne, Nick volunteers to bring her children to meet her out of town. Missing the plane, they must make the long journey by car. What Nick doesn't know is that Suzanne's children think that no man is good enough for their mum and will do everything they can to make the trip a nightmare for him.
