TeenzTen An action-packed slog

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

jazp the movie exemplifies what the black family can and should be. strong through the tough times. As a black lady, I can relate to the drama that the family goes through and how their Sunday dinners kept them close. To the person who said Kingdom Come was way better than Soul Food just proves that no movie can satisfy everyone. This movie was incredible and believable. But I felt that Kingdom Come was to put mildly boring. It does not stick out to me at all as a memorable movie. It was alright. No to bash anyone but obviously taste in movies differs person to person.. but I must say Soul Food was great...the acting was magnificent...especially Vivica and Vanessa. LOVED THIS MOVIE. Plus the movie features fabulous music.

Brian Washington When I first saw this film it reminded me so much of my family I actually got nervous. The story depicted in this film is so true especially in many Black families, especially mine. The story is pretty much about how a family breaks up after the matriarch becomes ill and eventually dies causing rifts to develop due to the fact that the one person who keeps the family grounded is no longer around to mediate disputes and to show love and guidance to the younger generation. This is definitely a wonderful film that should be viewed by every family no matter what race they are.

DunnDeeDaGreat Soul Food is one of the best family films ever made. The cast led by Vanessa Williams is superb. Vicva A. Fox and Nia Long are also great as the younger sisters. Micheal Beachmen and Mehki Pffeir are also great. But the real standout is Brandon Hammons who plays Ahmad. He shows great acting talent in his first big role. 10/10.

muser1 I love this movie. I just saw it for the first time and could kick myself for waiting solong. Brandon Hammond is a hoot and Viveca A. Fox was wonderful. It isso nice to see a movie centered around an African-American family thatwasn't about hoods or hip-hop. Every family, black or white orwhatever, can identify with the kinds of problems this family had.There is a poignant, endearing quality to this movie that just appealedto me and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a "feel-good" fixwithout the sweet-as-saccharine quality so many movies have.
