It has been 12 years since Barbershop 2: Back in Business and, because that's how time works, the returning cast members for Barbershop: The Next Cut are all a dozen years older than they were last time out. This third entry in the franchise (fourth if you count spinoff, Beauty Shop) opts to follow its cast and go more adult with its plot. The Next Cut focuses heavily on the problem of gang violence.
Malcolm D.

The ensemble—and this is an ensemble film—also features Regina Hall; J.B. Smoove; Common; Nicki Minaj; Lamorne Morris; Michael Rainey, Jr.; Utkarsh Ambudkar; and Margot Bingham.

The best moments in the franchise have always revolved around the discussions of the barbers and customers. That is again the case here, but now a lot of those discussions are about more tha...
