The comedy “Soul Men” is not the sequel to the 1980s film “Soul Man,” rather the late Bernie Mac’s last motion picture.
In the movie “Soul Men,” the two remaining members of the popular soul band, The Real Deal, from the 1970’s, Floyd Henderson, now a retired businessman, and ne’er-do-well, ex-convict, Louis Hinds, take a road trip to the Apollo Theater for a musical tribute to their recently deceased front man, Marcus Hook.
As they travel cross country in a series of adventures and misdventures, they air old grievances about thirty year old betrayals and learn the music’s still in them.
