“Why do you ask? Its got more one-liners, better (as in more amusing) dialogue, better action. Shaft becomes the poor manu0026#39;s James Bond in this one, doing what amounts to international spying but without the hi-tech tricks of Bond. Great final u0026quot;Shaft enraged by the slow working justice systemu0026quot; ending. Great title song by the 4 Tops (u0026quot;Are You Bad Enoughu0026quot;) doesnu0026#39;t measure up to the classic u0026quot;Shaftu0026quot; but still delivers.”
