Critics Consensus

Heartfelt, thought-provoking, and above all funny, Barbershop: The Next Cut is the rare belated sequel that more than lives up to the standard set by its predecessors.

Kevin Maher

Times (UK)

This one, thankfully, boasts some welcome new cast members (including the rapper Common and Nicki Minaj), a new director in Malcolm D Lee (the cousin of Spike), and a fearless approach to difficult subjects.

Rated: 3/5

Roxana Hadadi

Chesapeake Family Magazine

Barbershop: The Next Cut brings topical social issues into the narrative but only starts meaningful conversations without genuinely pushing them forward.

Rated: 2.5/5

Steve Davis

Austin Chronicle

What most captivates is the rhythm of those scenes in which the characters mount the soapbox to share stinging observations on a variety of topics in an often hilarious back-and-forth battle of words.

Rated: 3/5

Lainey Gossip

The Next Cut is a comedy with dramatic heft or a drama with solid comedy, depending on how you look at it. Either way, it more than justifies returning to the barbershop.

Laramie Movie Scope

I did not laugh much, but it is effective on an emotional level, as a portrait of a people trying to cope with gang violence that is spinning out of control in their community.

Rated: B

Lyles' Movie Files

A more mature installment that seeks to challenge audiences as often as it cracks them up, Next Cut marks a charming and enjoyable evolution of the series.

The acting and cedric's one liners make this movie! Although, the premise of the ceasefire seems a bit unrealistic, it's a feel-good movie with a nice message behind it.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Another fun addition to a classic series. It lacked some of the fun characters from the first two but it was still fun to get a new movie from the series. Pretty serious issues were discussed as well.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This is the best barbershop out of all of them because it has a very strong story and message but i think the message is what is the best think about the film.The acting is amazing and everything about it is fun.The only think i don't like is the dumb plot lines that really don't matter to the story.but overall it looked horrible from the trailers but its better so 7/10.
