     • The original Shaft was suave, cool, and level-headed. Though the plot was pretty formulaic, at least the character was enjoyable and funny. The emphasis on anger and social justice infused in this remake results in diminished charm and an occasionally pretty uncomfortable experience (e.g. the beat down of the drug dealer).

   Is shaft a good movie?

   • "Shaft" (2000) is a 'hip' crime thriller that resurrects the franchise 27 years after the original trilogy from 1971-1973 that featured Richard Roundtree in the title role (he returns here as the aged uncle). The cast and filmmaking are fine; the problem is the lame story with which they're shackled.

   What if shaft had had a better storyline?

   • If Shaft had had a better storyline and been more popular, Wright's portrayal of drug dealer/gang leader Peoples Hernandez would have been his magnum opus. His type of method acting is similar to that of Bale's, and to see them square off against one another is THE principal reason for watching, especially when Wright stabs Bale in the hand.

   Is shaft a good character?

   • Shaft, the main character (who never seems to have a first name), is powerful, smart, and unwilling to be pushed around by authority. Even if it means losing his job (or quitting--Shaft is always the one making his own choices).
