Film 311/365, Day 333/365 – Shaft

Shaft is one smooth and cool, whilst also being violent and actually quite angry, but then it is Samuel L. Jackson and he does it so well.  There is a fair bit of action, lots of baddies that couldn’t hit a barn door with a banjo from two paces yet Shaft can pick them off without really paying attention.  Good but not that good.

Synopsis:  New York detective John Shaft is investigating a racially motivated murder which could have been committed by the son of a wealthy real estate tycoon.  Shaft is determined to get to the bottom of things whilst everything seems to be going against him.

Film 23/365, Day 23/365 – Eraser

When it comes to witness protection Us Marshal John Kruger is the best there is. But even he is going to have a hard time protecting his latest assignment. She is the lead witness in a case against a large weapons manufacturer who has some questionable customers. They’ve got all the latest state of the art weaponry and a couple of US Marshals on their payroll.

If you've ever seen an Arnie film then you will know exactly what to expect from Eraser, if not, well, where have you been? Eraser is packed full of non-stop action, big guns and cheesy lines. It isn't close to being one of his best but still worth watching if you enjoy your action films.
