Meh. I must say unlike many people I did enjoy the Samuel L. Jackson sequel of 2000 as it was mostly simple but cool fun mostly because Jackson was born to play a modern Shaft. Now I was hyped to hear he would return for another sequel along with the original Shaft Richard Roundtree as well. Too bad this sequel is truly a let down and worthy to be a Shaft film. The screenplay was beyond awful. Yes it was supposed to be more of a comedy but some jokes were really cringe worthy. Jessie T. Usher was horrible. Truly horrible. Its hard to define what he actually wanted to do with his character as he can do neither, cool now awkward. Nothing worked. Absolutely pathetic performance. Samuel L. Jackson was thankfully back to his expected coolness and really saved loads of the film with his appearance. Also what the hell was wrong with Regina Hall? Very weak turn after the last good years she had. The soundtrack was good as well so that was another saving point. Still it is another one of those sequels the world really did not need.
