‘Shaft’ (2019): The Father-Son Comedy That Cops Out
The 'Shaft' remake fails to capture Blaxpoitation's rebellious spirit.

The epilogue to the film "The Laughing Man" (1966), which alternates between objectivity and anger, exposes the involvement of the West German mercenary Siegfried Müller in the war against the Congolese government Lumumba. In the sequel, new witnesses against Major Müller have their say, including a former school friend and a French paratrooper colonel. GDR lawyer Kaul reports on the status of the criminal proceedings against Müller, while the final images show the war criminal feeding the ducks in South Africa.

The power of a talented female director like Patty Jenkins and an overall diverse cast is what makes this film worth watching for me.
When long-time couple Jenny and Nate break up so Jenny can pursue her journalism career, Jenny leans on her two best friends for one last epic night in the city.
Overall this movie was an easy watch, but by no means a worthwhile watch.
The external threat invaded the domestic environment at the most valuable moment: grieving.
The beating heart of this film is the relationship between Anna Osborne and Sonya Rockhouse.
