Soul Men (2008)

Vulgar, obnoxious and offensive, Soul Men was a bit hard to finish at times when I would think to myself “what’s the point?” Knowing that it was Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes last film, I stayed through till the end and summed it up as a mediocre but entertaining movie.

Of course we all knew that this movie was not going to provide any...
