DVD Review: Last of the Landis Classics?
Summary: 5 Stars

As a musician, the band is second to none. Where else can you see Matt Murphy and Bones Malone play with Duck Dunn and Steve Cropper other than some of the old SNL shows. You better THINK about owning this one ASAP

DVD Review: This is an excellent Musical Comedy.
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this movie ever since it came out and I saw it the first time. I just had to own it to watch it whenever I want.

Description of The Blues Brothers (Widescreen 25th Anniversary Edition)

Belushi and Aykroyd star as the Blues Brothers who are trying to reunite their rhythm and blues band in order to raise some honest money.
Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: R
Release Date: 17-JAN-2006
Media Type: DVD
After building up the duo's popularity through popular recordings and several performances on Saturday Night Live, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd--as "legendary" Chicago blues brothers Jake and Elwood Blues--took their act to the big screen in this action-packed hit from 1980. As Jake and Elwood struggle to reunite their old band and save the Chicago orphanage where they were raised, they wreak enough good-natured havoc to attract the entire Cook County police force. The result is a big-budget stunt-fest on a scale rarely attempted before or since, including extended car chases that result in the wanton destruction of shopping malls and more police cars than you can count. Along the way there's plenty of music to punctuate the action, including performances by Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Cab Calloway, and James Brown that are guaranteed to knock you out. As played with deadpan wit by Belushi and Aykroyd, the Blues Brothers are "on a mission from God," and that gives them a kind of reckless glee that keeps the movie from losing its comedic appeal. Otherwise this might have been just a bloated marathon of mayhem that quickly wears out its welcome (which is how some critics described this film and its 1998 sequel). Keep an eye out for Steven Spielberg as the city clerk who stamps some crucial paperwork near the end of the film. --Jeff Shannon
