Don’t be fooled by its “boring” title, in fact Barbershop is one of those movies that will make you feel good on the inside. It’s a comedy about a day in the life of a Barbershop where owner Calvin (ice Cube) is forced to sell the shop to a business man who intends to turn the barbershop into a gentleman’s club. Calvin then realises that his grandfather’s shop which was passed down from his grandfather to his father then to him, is worth more than the revenue it makes as it’s a place where people hang out and go about.

The story is full of hearty characters building the foundation in which the barbershop is all about. A place where the characters would call their second home. A very hearty film that should be enjoyed by everyone.

8 / 10
