Synopsis
Superstars Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac are “Soul Men” - the hilarious story of Louis (Samuel L.

When the death of their former group leader (John Legend) reunites them and sends them driving cross country for a tribute concert at the legendary Apollo Theatre, they will have only five days to bury the hatchet on a twenty-year-old grudge.
