"It's mix-and-match thriller MacGuffin clichés, but the movie barely pretends to be interested in this generic crime plot."

Variety
Variety"Whether you take this iteration of the character as an affectionate throwback or a cringe-worthy anachronism, it's hard to watch "Shaft" without feeling a little wistful."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"A strange, angry attack on modernity that feels like the result of a group of bitter men griping about the metrosexualisation of a younger generation."
—
The Guardian
The Guardian"Yes, the great Isaac Hayes music makes an appearance, but the old days are gone and they are not coming back."
—
Los Angeles Times
Los Angeles Times"It's all terribly contrived but, thanks to Samuel L. Jackson, this reboot of a reboot manages to resurrect stray moments of '70s-era, go-it-alone impudence and irreverence that still carry a certain appeal."
