Summary
Take a seat, sit back, and get ready for another haircut: Calvin opens up shop once again in Barbershop 2: Back in Business, a sequel to the original comedy smash hit. Ice Cube, Cedric the Entertainer, Sean Patrick Thomas, Eve, Troy Garity, Michael Ealy, and Leonard Earl Howze – they’re still cutting hair and cutting up in Calvin’s shop on the South Side of Chicago, with Oscar-nominee Queen Latifah joining the fun as Gina, a stylist at the beauty shop next door, and Kenan Thompson stepping in as a rookie trying to earn his clippers. In Barbershop 2: Back in Business, Calvin (Ice Cube) has gotten over his money troubles and is no longer in danger of losing his shop – but his neighborhood is in danger of losing its identity. Intent on "regentrifying" the South Side, a money-hungry corporation is moving into the community with coffee bars, video stores, and a big-name haircut chain, and the area’s "mom and pop" establishments are in danger of losing their hometown advantage. While juggling changing situations, new loves, and looking for ways to better their lives, Calvin and his crew have to take a stand to keep the South Side and its businesses in the family. And of course, the crew still has time for its signature Barbershop discussions – outrageous, explosive, and hilarious. The world changes and so do hairdos, but some things never go out of style – you can still say anything at the barbershop. In Barbershop 2: Back in Business, customers still come into Calvin’s South Side barbershop to get a haircut, and they walk out with an earful of anything from politics to sports to a blow-by-blow account of somebody else’s business. Every community has a place where people congregate to exchange stories, laugh, seek guidance, or just hang out – Calvin’s shop is one of those places.
