If Soul was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

An absolute cinematic disaster.
Joe Gardner is a middle school teacher with a love for jazz music. After a successful audition at the Half Note Club, he suddenly gets into an accident that separates his soul from his body and is transported to the You Seminar, a center in which souls develop and gain passions before being transported to a newborn child. Joe must enlist help from the other souls-in-training, like 22, a soul who has spent eons in the You Seminar, in order to get back to Earth.

Cried during Soul. Mostly at the ticket price.

If whispered monologues were currency, Soul would settle the national debt.

Soul is a cinematic experience designed specifically for film students who want to feel superior at dinner parties.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Soul?
Director clearly thought Soul was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Soul actually is?
Honestly, Soul would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

The cinematography in Soul is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Everyone praising the Soul performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
