Review of Barbershop: The Next Cut (2016) by Datamari — 05 May 2016
A pleasant surprise!
Barbershop: The Next Cut legitimately floored me; this is a heartfelt and relentlessly entertaining film. It's not just a film about black people's barbershops and salons, this is a movie that has a lot to say about gang violence, thug culture, racism, etc. Even the acting is fantastic; Ice Cube and Nikki Minaj seemed like a recipe for disaster, but they're some of the best performances from the two that i've ever seen. Granted, the comedy in the movie isn't the best, considering it may offend some people who are sensitive to this kind of subject matter. However, the end result was a movie that was relentlessly entertaining, made with tons of heart, and overall fun to watch. Would I put it at some of the best comedies i've ever seen? I wouldn't say that, and I wouldn't recommend it to those who dislike the subjects brought up in the film, but still, this next installment in the Barbershop series is a solid comedy.
Barbershop: The Next Cut gets an 8/10.
