Shaft
Who delivers ten times out of ten? Samuel L. Jackson is shaft, the man and the movie. John Singleton (Boys ‘N’ the Hood), directs this gritty action packed thriller. With Uncle John Shaft (Richard Roundtree reprising his original role) as mentor, it's no surprise that today's Shaft is the coolest dude around. To stop a racist killer (Christian Bale) Shaft's got to track down the only eyewitness that can put him behind bars (Toni Collette).
As Shaft closes in so does the danger. Armed with attitude and up against corrupt cops and venomous drug lords he's out to make crime pay up.
