Barbershop 2: Back in Business Trailers

The continuing adventures of the barbers at Calvin's Barbershop. Gina, a stylist at the beauty shop next door, is now trying to cut in on his business. Calvin is again struggling to keep his father's shop and traditions alive--this time against urban developers looking to replace mom & pop establishments with name-brand chains. The world changes, but some things never go out of style--from current events and politics to relationships and love, you can still say anything you want at the barbershop.

Nonureva Really Surprised!
FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Hugh Babershop 2: Back in Business was a movie I enjoyed watching. Every now and then it throws in hilarious gags, but at some points becomes very tedious. Most of the acting is done well, although Eve sometimes draws a blank along with Queen Latifah.The plot of the movie is very simple, competing businesses and family values are sometimes easy to predict.As with a lot of of sequels, them movie is lacking just a little bit of laughter and depth rather than outdoing its predecessor. Some "extra" characters in the original made me laugh, but with lack of them in the second I was a little let down.I really enjoyed Barbershop 2, it combines some smart lines with great acting (with some exceptions) and was pretty fun to watch.I don't highly recommend this movie, but if you have seen the first installment than I guess that it is a must see.
BrohmaBull007 This movie is once again another good movie. It equally if not surpasses the first one. This one takes a similar but great plot and makes another good movie. This movie has added more comedy. Cedric is hilarious once again. Ice Cube portrays Calvin with another great role. The conversations push away from music and TV and deal with Politics. Some characters are annoying but overall its good to have the same cast back. The Barbecue with Queen Latifa in it was great not to mention foreshadowing (Beauty Shop). The love triangle from the previous movie is brought back with double the laughs. The politics and the barbershop being put on TV were all hilarious. I'm glad this movie was able to keep things fresh in Chicago. If you loved the first one then check this one out.
rwspencer3rd What is the name of the Tu Pac song that was playing in the scene when Ice Cube walks in the shop? That song was hot, however, I can't find that CD any where. I need to know so that I can buy it. It is not on the Barbershop 2 soundtrack. What is the name of the Tu Pac song that was playing in the scene when Ice Cube walks in the shop?

delano_flowers I've read the comments and I've watched both movies (Barbershop I and Barbershop II). What surprised me in the comments was how soon we forget about the HEAT that Ice Cube took after Barbershop I was released. These films are true examples of how many Chicago West side or South side barbershops are run when owned by young blacks. (aside from the fact that you don't have a wall between the beauty shop and barber shop). It's usually all done under the same roof because 'guys get their hair braided' and 'women get their hair faded'. The 'zingers' had to be quick and subtle in order to get pass the critics and the 'victims'.What Ice Cube did with the opening series of black and white SNAPSHOTS was GREAT. He let the audience's mind wander and say things like 'Yeah, What ever happen to so-and-so?', without Cedric having to be accused of saying the wrong thing. That was a nice touch. I gave it a B+.
