    Editorial Reviews:

    Amazon.com
    Samuel L. Jackson makes a gleefully updated John Shaft in John Singleton's homage to (not remake of) the early '70s action classic, picking up where Richard Roundtree's legendary Shaft left off. The Manhattan-set film is highlighted by excellent performances, dynamic action scenes, and witty one-liners (Jackson's Shaft: "It's my duty to please the booty"--although the line's deceptive: there's a surprising lack of sex in the film). Unfortunately, it's offset by a surprisingly uninspired, predictable, one-dimensional story, penned by Singleton, Richard Price, and Shane Salerno. The story, in which Shaft investigates the murder of a young African American, is without suspense, since from the start the audience knows that rich white boy Walter Wade (Christian Bale) did the deed, and that Shaft is going to kick his ass, big time. That said, charismatic performances--from Jackson (who, in keeping with the times, is more volatile and fiery than his predecessor), Toni Collette (as a frightened witness), the villainous Bale, and the utterly amazing Jeffrey Wright (Basquiat)--make the film enticing and watchable. Look for a cameo by the original Shaft's director, the legendary Gordon Parks, and fans of the original should note that a still stunningly handsome Roundtree briefly appears as Jackson's uncle. --N.F. Mendoza

    5 out of 5 stars Shaft   December 18, 2009
    Arnita D. Brown (USA)
    Jackson is the king of cool. He leaves no room for doubt: He is the man. If you want to see a movie where Samueal l. Jackson just absolutly dominates and tools on people, definetly see this movie.


    4 out of 5 stars Action action action   October 31, 2009
    Michael Kerjman (The Earth)
    It is hard to follow all the piff-puffs on a way of Afro-American policeman bringing to punishment a white play-boy rich murderer but a final short victim's mother did taking a justice in her hands.

    A speedy, sexy, leader-clad, money-thirsty and action-packed story occurs Only in America-in the Big Apple of which some glimpses add an aesthetic pleasure to viewing this above-law tale.



    5 out of 5 stars Awesome Movie   October 15, 2009

    Great Movie...my husband loves it and I bought it for him for Father's Day. He was so excited. I love Samuel Jackson in this film...he such a tough guy.



    4 out of 5 stars COLORFUL PERFORMANCES MAKE THIS OVER THE TOP FILM FUN!   July 8, 2009
    ! MR. KNOW IT ALL ;-b (TRI STATE AREA)
    I didn't know what to expect from this remake of the 70's film of the same name, but fun performances by Jackson, Bale and Wright make this film very entertaining!

    I haven't seen the original film is a very long time, so it's hard for me to compare the two films. The remake is a slick, fast paced "cops and robbers" action film that is sure to please fans of the genre. Sure some situations are contrived to say the least, but that doesn't keep Shaft from delivering the goods!
