Review of Shaft

Shaft (2000)
3/10
A ‘guy movie' stretched past the max. Just who is the psychopathic killer here?
31 December 2000
Shaft is portrayed as a testosterone-blown, bull-in-a-china-shop killer who got stuck in the 70s somewhere. I vote we leave him there.

His actions *are* aimed at justice for the underdog in some way, but this is a great example of the hunter becoming the monster he hunts. It's pretty hard for me to see this guy as anybody's hero. Well, maybe a very confused, very angry adolescent….
