Review of Barbershop

Barbershop (2002)
7/10
What a nice surprise!
26 September 2002
My husband and I saw Barbershop last night and we enjoyed every minute of it. The whole audience was laughing through the whole thing. Yes, I agree the ATM scenes were silly, but they were suppose to be. Lighten up, critics! I really liked the way it portrayed each character as a human being first - not by their race. The short speech given by the ex-con in the barbershop was so right-on. And Cedric made some very powerful political statments that might make some people squirm, but I'm glad he said them. I'm very impressed with the way the "white guy" in the shop played his role. He could have been a token "cracker" but he played the part very well, and was true to who he really was. I've always been a fan of Ice Cube and Cedric, and this just helps to reaffirm it. I'm recommending this movie to everyone. We can all learn some things about acceptance and civility from this one. Thank you, thank you for showing us how similar we all are, Ice Cube!! A+
