Soul Men

This film is somewhat a good film, it surprises me with nice jokes and good old school songs. By the way the voices in the songs are their own and may I add are good musical voices, original ones :D. I gave it 7 * mostly because of Bernie. S.L. Jackson played very well,tough as usual.Nevertheless a film to see with your family on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, a film about friendship,at least the last part :P, friends sometimes find them hating each other,for different reasons, but love finally conquers all, doesn't it ?????. Cool ending! I recommend this movie for the people who don't expect the terrible laugh of another tipical comedy.P.S. Rest in peace Bernie!Loved your films, your are one of the Kings of Comedy

I just returned from seeing "Soul Men". I laughed so hard. Samuel L Jackson is such a versatile actor. I love him in so many movies. Sam and Bernie played well off each other. And please stay for the credits because there is some scenes of Bernie being interviewed and doing his comedy act. He uses the f word in his act.

It was very funny seeing Sam in corn rows and with the gray in them. That alone is worth seeing.

It was very nice that they dedicated the movie to Bernie Mac and Issac Hayes who died one day apart from each other. They will both be missed.

Samuel keep on making these wonderful movies.

Last movie from Bernie Mac, a great comedian that will be missed by everybody. His stand-up comedies were great, his show The Bernie Mac Show went on for a long time but was very funny and never got boring. Different comedies like Bad Santa will forever remain in my favourites. For this last movie Bernie Mac forms a duo with Samuel L. Jackson and that worked out very well. There's a good chemistry between them, it' was enjoyable to watch. Soul Men might not be the funniest of his movies but it was good to watch him one more time. Even if there was a bit too much singing in my opinion, it's still good enough. Rest in peace Bernie, you brought a lot of smiles to people faces.

These are some smoooooth dudes!

Great little film that has good music and good laughs, the first comeback show is hilarious.

There is not a lot that needs to be said here...if you enjoy the actors, like good music and a laugh then this is a YES :)

I had a chance to see an advance screening of Soul Men and I must say it's a highly enjoyable comedy that's a true testament to the comedic skills of both Samuel L. Jackson and the late great Bernie Mac. The trailer pretty much explains the plot, so there's no need to go into detail here but I will say that more than music the film for me was about the friendship between the characters portrayed by Mac & Jackson. Jackson who in my opinion has never handled lead comedic roles very well has a chance to shine here. As for Mac in his last role he's in top form and the comedic chemistry of the two is reminiscent of the Bill Cosby & Sidney Poitter vehicles of the seventies. As for the supporting roles Affion Crockett has a few scene stealing moments and the lovely Sharon Leal continues to make a name for herself. The direction by Malcolm D. Lee is sharp and on par with his previous films Roll Bounce & Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins, while the script by Robert Ramsey and Matthew Stone is the duo's best script since 1999's Life. Watching the end credits of the film which is a heart warming tribute to Mac we given in a chance to look into a man who was more than a comic but an entertainer who loved his craft. Soul Men is a film filled with plenty of soul and is easily one of Mac's best films.
