This admittedly silly comedy shows the lives of some people working in a barbershop in inner-city Chicago over the course of a winter day. The movie deals with things like poverty and gentrification. Mind you, it does so in a completely goofball manner. Ice Cube, Keith David, Eve, Anthony Andersen, Jazsmin Lewis, Troy Garity (Jane Fonda's son), Tom Brown, Michael Ealy, Sean Patrick Thomas and Cedric the Entertainer have lots of fun with the material.
Personally, my favorite scene in "Barbershop" was the political argument, mainly for how Cedric the Entertainer's character put out his lines. As to the controversy about that scene, let's realize that it was just acting. And some damn funny acting at that!
All in all, a good time.
