The Blue Brothers (Review)
"Were On A Mission From GOD"
The Blue Brothers movie staring John Belushi as "Joliet" and Dan Aykroyd as "Elwood" is muscial/comedy film about to brothers/partners/musicians (they never clarify it). Trying to get 5,000 to pay the tax assessor. Now i know that sound like a boring movie. BUT when you add in James Brown,Aretha Franklin, Cab Calloway and Ray Charles and John Lee Hooker....man this movie is AWSOME. The cool thing about the movie is its really how these characters act, respond to certain situations and almost get killed doing it. Yet managing to look quite stylish while doing it. There's really nothing bad about the film. The entire time you watch this its a truck load of a laughs, what the crap just happend's, and how did they get HIM!!!!! The movie directed by John Landin is a really good movie and will be enjoyed by everyone....over 13.

MAN THIS MNOVE FREAKIN AWSOME. That whole church scene with James Brown was so unbelievably cool. They were doing back flips, cartwheels, it was like circus o-lay in there. If that was my church id go everyday...... i mean JAMES BROWN IS THE PASTOR. That has got to e the most funky-fied holy ghost church ever. Another part i loved was the whole final scene when the cops army, national guard, guys in helicopters,tanks, are ALL trying to get him. The thing really that's striking is not the Blues Brothers. Its all the crazy stuff that happens AROUND the blues brothers.The writing for this movie is unbelievably GREAT. There are not a lot of comedy movie is consider to be good, but what this movie brought was a scene of comedy/amazement that you don't see in comedy movies. Some comedy movie show you things that CAN happen. This movie show you what happens when people in the Blues Brothers world decide to be crazy. Its not ONE person did something wrong. NO. Everyone in this movie is a little bit insane and thats whats awsome about it. No One treats anything normally. Like the scene where they got blown up in that hotel . They just took it,got up and acted like nothing happened. But form some strange reason if that happened to me i just would been like...ehh....Tuesdays.Anyway its a wonderful movie from really everyone. IT really shows you how coonected everyone is with GOOD MUSIC. I bet if saw this in theaters everyone would be singing(i guess). I really appreciate how they show what good quality music is by doing old jazz, blues and gospel songs. SHOOT even the COUNTRY music sounds good. Which is extremely hard to do. Anyway in all is a great great movie the only problem is have with is is why don't The Blue Brothers show more character. Sometimes...Sometimes it would be nice for them to show a little emotion. Also that scene where they back up off the incomlete highway was a biggest plot-hole I've scene yet. YET. All in all this movie gets a.....
8.5/10
