The Barbershop (2021) User Reviews

Higher quality than expected

[rylangameboy · 8/10 · 20 November 2023]

For a short indie film, the quality (lighting, acting, set, etc.) are all very up to parr and pleasing to see. The way the man has a sudden change of mind during his psychological episode is very realistic, and the acting in general is.

I also think there's real talent when you are the director and actor in the same film, from my experience, that's not an easy thing to do

Although I know I should've expected this from a short film, because, well, it's short, I don't think we really get introduced to the characters (especially Julian) enough to care during his episode.

Overall, A very nice short film with a young director for a clear passion for filmmaking.

provocative

[Kirpianuscus · 24 September 2023]

A young man in a barbershop. A not so ordinary barber. A harcut who is not the expected one by client. And his refuse to pay creates more than a cold answer from barber.

A provocative film , for its end, first, for the final impressions, for the perspective of ordinary situation and for good acting.

In short, one of special short films, admirable crafted, offering more than a good story but echoes of old parables in which the touch of a sort of magic works impecable.

A film about rules and power and hidden realities, easy to ignore but driving, in precise manner , lives.

So, just provocative to a kind of experience.
