Soul Men could have been so much more.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Overview
Two former backup soul singers, Louis and Floyd, have not spoken to each other in 20 years, and reluctantly agree to travel across the country together to a reunion concert to honor their recently-deceased lead singer. Cleo, a beautiful young woman who is believed to be Floyd's daughter, accompanies them as a new singer.

Considering the canvas the story provides, and the richness of the tradition it taps into, the amount and quality of the music is pretty disappointing.

This one's only fair, but it has its low-down wiles and its moments.
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune

It is not a perfect film but it is a nice, solid reminder of how great Bernie Mac was.
Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies
Rotten
It really is bittersweet to watch Mac in one of his final performances. He makes the most of pretty average material here.
