   Reviews. Soul Man. Roger Ebert October 24, 1986. Tweet. Now streaming on: Powered by JustWatch. Although the premise of "Soul Man" has been greeted with widespread derision, it actually has a lot of potential - even if it has been made into a lame-brained movie.

   Is 'Soul Man' a good movie?

   • There are two good performances in "Soul Man," by Chong and Jones. Howell seems to have wandered in from a teen comedy; there is never a moment when I felt he was really experiencing the feelings in this movie.

   Is 'Soul Man' based on a true story?

   • "Soul Man" hardly even seems to realize, for example, that the real subject of the film is not race but ethics - the ethics of pretending to be someone you are not, and lying to others about it. In the movie, a rich Southern California kid (C. Thomas Howell) is admitted to Harvard, but his millionaire father won't pay the tuition.
