- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsok, maybe some miscellaneous mistakes regarding character portrayal but otherwise a perfect entertaining comedy first, action second film, with great performance by Samuel L Jackson
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsvery good very funny i enjoy
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsPlenty of hilarious situations and bons mots in this reinstallment of a 1971/2000 original. Lots of guns and ass-whooping also since it is a crime fighting US film. Laughed a lot.
- Rating: 2.5 out of 5 starsI really liked the lighter tone when compared to the 2000 version and thought this was headed for a higher rating until it totally loses steam in the final third, causing me to check out too. I thought this was just another remake and didn't realize it was a continuation off the earlier film, which was much more straight forward and serious. I actually even laughed a few times during this and enjoyed the generational humor, which helped usher Shaft into this new social landscape. 5.5/10 Samuel L. Jackson Binge: Jackson got to drop a few more one liners this time around and definitely played a more cyinically comical Shaft two decades later. The fish out of water scenes with his socially conscious son added a chance for humor, absent in the first film. Above all though, Shaft is still one bad mother, and no one is better in that role than Sam Jackson. SLJ January #71
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsMUST SEE! Super fresh action movie. Had a lot of fun watching it. The plot is basic, but enough fun to get you invested to see how the relationship between them evolves and how they solve the case by working together.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsThis movie is fun as hell! It is refreshing to have a politically incorrect movie that relies on character development and comedy instead of a CGI fest. Awesome
- Rating: 3 out of 5 starsLots of shooting and hurting of people. A bit of making fun of young people and their mentality was amusing. Some music was good, otherwise waste of time
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsIts a good popcorn comedy entertainment. Not a path breaking movie but definitely Samuel L Jackson rocked his role as Shaft, and not so bad family relation as well. Feels like watching good 80/90s action movie which is very very rare to come these days.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsThis movie is pure gold.
