Shaft's Big Score! DVD (1972)

If you're going to take the smoothness of "Shaft's Big Score!" to the hilt, you might as well enjoy it courtesy of a slick DVD.

The difference in picture quality compared to the "Shaft" DVD is instantly apparent. The production values of this sequel are much higher than the first film, and transferred to DVD, you get a clear and detailed image.

The sound is presented in a mono mix that's strong and free of distortion. Unfortunately though, mono is just a little dull for such a hip movie.

The only 'extra feature' is the theatrical trailer. What would have made this disc a little more special, like its predecessor, would have been an original featurette or promotional film from the time of release.
