Just a note to buyers:
All three SHAFT films presented as this triple feature are NOT the widescreen versions. Case cover lists them as "Full Frame."

Shaft/Shaft's Big Score/Shaft in Africa
Shaft-Very good movie. Lots of action and a good plot.
Shaft's Big Score-Fair movie, but no where as good as Shaft.
Shaft in Africa-As good as Shaft. Good story line with plenty of action.

Too bad the set did not include Diamond Shaft to complete the series.
