THE BLUES BROTHERS BLUES BROTHERS 2000 ON DVD, DOUBLE FEATURE....The Blues Brothers: John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd--as "legendary"
Chicago brothers Jake and Elwood Blues--brought their "Saturday Night
Live" 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. Keep an eye out for Steven Spielberg as
the city clerk who stamps some crucial paperwork near the end of the
film. The Blues Brothers 2000: It's hard to ignore the sad
and conspicuous absence of the late John Belushi, but this long-delayed
sequel still has Dan Aykroyd to keep the music alive. Once again,
Elwood's trying to reunite the original Blues Brothers Band, and this
time he's got a strip-joint bartender (John Goodman) and a 10-year-old
orphan named Buster (J Evan Bonifant) joining him at centre stage. It's
a shameless clone of the first film, and nobody--especially not Aykroyd
or director John Landis--seems to care that the story's not nearly as
fun as the music. Of course there's a seemingly endless parade of
stunts, including a non-stop pileup of police cars that's hilariously
absurd, but what really matters here--indeed, the movie's only saving
grace--is the great line-up of legendary blues musicians. Aretha
Franklin, James Brown, Junior Wells, Eric Clapton, BB King, Jonny Lang,
Eddie Floyd and Blues Traveler are among the many special guests
assembled for the film, and their stellar presence makes you wonder if
the revived Blues Brothers shouldn't remain an obscure opening act.
