Description:

A smart comedy about a day in the life of a southside Chicago Barbershop (2002, rated PG-13). Calvin (Ice Cube) inherited the struggling business from his deceased father, but views the shop as nothing but a burden and waste of his time. After selling the barbershop to a local loan shark, Calvin slowly begins to appreciate his father's vision and legacy, and he struggles with regretting that he might have just sold those out. The barbershop is filled with characters who share their stories, jokes, trials and tribulations. Eddie is an older barber with strong opinions, but no customers. Jimmy is a highly educated barber with a superiority complex who can't stand Isaac, the new white barber who just wants a shot at cutting some hair. Ricky is an ex-con with two strikes against him who is desperately trying to stay straight. Terri is a hard-edged woman who can't seem to leave her two-timing boyfriend. And lastly there's Dinka, a fellow barber who is madly in love with Terri, but she doesn't give him the time of day. Besides bringing the laughs, Barbershop has a big heart and celebrates the value of community.
