A Total Insult To The Original!!
By wikkidsmyle (438 reviews) from Newmarket , 23 Feb 2007[Highly rated reviewer]
What on earth possessed Samuel L Jackson, Christian Bale and Toni Collette to star in this pile of garbage? The storyline is juvenile TV detective show; the racism worse than in the so-called 'blaxplotation' film it is supposed to 'homage'; the swearing is grating and the soundtrack from David 'James Bond' Arnold is awful. Coning Richard Rountree to guest star as 'the randy uncle' is the final insult. AVOID!- Was this review helpful to you?

(19)Shaft's first name is john?
By angloitalian (34 reviews) , 29 May 2012Shaft is a film that does exactly what you expect of it
a mixture of action and adventure with a dose of tension and the odd stereotype Shaft is certainly worth one watch but at rare points will this film surprise you in the direction that it takes
Samuel L Jackson and Christian Bale both play their parts in making a decent action film however this is a film we've all seen many times before and will probably be placed somewhere in the middle of both their careers- Was this review helpful to you?

Disappointing
By a customer from Northolt , 26 Aug 2008Love Samual L and love Christian Bale but the film was a let down...Could have been more car chases, more explosions, more gratiutous violence but not this time. Christian was good as the bad guy this time, he played the part well, but I think they made Samuel's part too mild and he is capable of so much more.
Still a recommended watch but don't expect too much.- Was this review helpful to you?
