Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3.5/4 --
A savage satire that sets its sights on hypocrisy, superficiality, and sexual mores.

Film Frenzy
There's a self-awareness to Shampoo that gives the movie a cleansing sadness and, oddly, makes Beatty an affectingly amoral roue.

Entertainment Weekly
Rating: 6/10 --
...unhurried if not slow, it at times feels downright deflated as characters wander ponderously through mansions and backyards or drive down crowded highways and empty hillside roadways.

The Retro Set
All the excellent creative components do not add up to a whole.

Variety
...The American film comedy of the year....A witty, furtively revolutionary, foul-mouthed comedy of manners...
New York Times
The laughs are tempered by bleakness and the film ends up saddened by its characters' waywardness.

Time Out
Everything about Shampoo is vague, attitudinizing, and lacking in true insight. Not one of its characters is worthy of sympathy.

Product Description:
This fast-paced 1975 comedy, written by Robert Towne and directed by Hal Ashby (previous collaborators on THE LAST DETAIL), provides a sharp, satiric view of the sexual mores of 1960s Southern California. In the last few days before the 1968 election, George (Warren Beatty), a very popular Beverly Hills hairdresser who wants to open his own shop, becomes sexually involved with several, if not all, of his female customers. Drawing on the audience's knowledge of Beatty's reputation as a ladies' man, Towne's script cleverly uses the expectation of fun and carefree sexual high jinks to then slowly begin to show the emotional damage this lifestyle has done, not just to everyone around him, but in a deeper sense to George himself. On the night that Nixon is elected there is a big party for which George has done all the women's hair. Nixon's corrupt world parallels George's deceitful life, which, in both cases, eventually catches up with them.
