If you like Samuel L. Jackson kicking ass, shooting people and swearing a whole lot, this is the film for you. This I believe is Jackson's second shot at the character. The emphasis is on comedy and action in this film.
This film gives Shaft an estranged ex-wife played by Regina Hall who has a pretty big potty mouth of her own but is really funny. In addition, Shaft now has a son who works for the FBI and is some kind of computer geek. Finally there is the original Shaft himself Richard Roundtree who is also very amusing and moving darn good for being 78 years old.
I enjoyed this film however, it is not a film you would probably want to watch with your significant other or mother or grandmother for that matter.
We've come a long way from the original Gordon Parks film that had a gritty NYC look.
Written by Kenya Barris and Alex Barrow, the film runs 112 minutes.
