I was mildly entertained throughout, especially by the soundtrack. Tim Story directed, between Barbership and Shaft.

I actually would've gone for a D+, because of the humor, and then it used Islamophobia and transphobia for throwaway laugh-lines. And, no, I haven't seen anything else in the franchise. Tim Story directed, seventeen years after Barber Shop.

Mostly stereotypical Black characters (the player, the stupid thieves, the sassy woman, etc.) live their lives in and around the title location. I did like the request for a haircut that would be "a little off the top, long in the back but not quite a shag, slope to the left like Gumby, Eddie Munster in the front, a lil' Wyclef on the right." Tim Story directed.
