In which the Mister and the Monsters join me in reviewing SOUL (2020), currently streaming on Disney+. Directed by Pete Docter, with a co-direction credit to Kemp Powers, based on a script from Docter/Powers and Mike Jones, SOUL tells the story of Joe Gardener (Jamie Foxx), a struggling musician working as a public high school teacher, whose ship may have come in but through a series of unfortunate events, has his life take a drastic turn. Will Joe get to get his shot to be the jazz piano man he's always dreamed he could be? Or will a morning misstep cause Joe to lose out on all his hopes and dreams? You'll have to watch and find out. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
