I really love this movie. It was a great film. The critics are all wrong about this movie. It was really relatable and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. The whole cast was great and played really well off each other. If you're black no matter what generation you are, there are relatable sayings and parts in this movie.

Loved every bit of this movie and didn’t want to see it end. Enjoyed Samuel L Jackson’s style portraying Shaft. Everyone seems to be offended with his language in betraying women but it’s Shaft not Mary Poppins. This is Shaft.

I did not know what to expect. The movie was funny. I enjoyed 3 generations of actors. I felt like the Actor who played the son seemed less genuine. I saw him in a cable series and he was far better in his acting. Over all the movie was funny, good action and of course Regina Hall was completely awesome!

Despite a few laughs, it’s a film that panders to a general audience with the funky musical score of a blaxploitation flick but none of the heart, spirit, or outrage.

By the end, when the three Shafts hit the streets in identical long coats like something out of The Matrix, the message is clear. Rough justice is back to stay. Women are out of the picture, except for sex. Dinosaurs again walk the earth with misogynistic and homophobic impunity. These are the laughs, folks. Don’t be surprised if they stick in your throat.

You occasionally sense the presence of an interesting movie struggling to get out of this hyperactive action comedy — or even just a better Tim Story action comedy, something like “Ride Along” or “Ride Along 2.”
