I just revisited Shaft (2000) last week after so many years; in the anticipation of viewing new one this week. Amazingly Shaft 2k is still way cooler than this one. Half baked storyline, scripting, subpar acting (apart from Samuel L. Jackson) makes it unbelievably drab watch. Felt like watching series pilot where new actors are trying to find their identity into the characters and still learning to grow into those rather than being them. Netflix shouldn't have made this or should have put more heart into rechanneling the soul from old to new.
