The Blues Brothers

I first saw The Blues Brothers back in the late 1980s. I was probably about 15 years old. I laughed like a drain and thoroughly enjoyed all the musical numbers. When the sequel came out about a decade later, I was one of many who felt it was much less funny than the original (though the music was still great). I may in fact owe Blues Brothers 2000 an apology. Not because it's suddenly become funnier in the past eighteen years, of course. The change is in the audience, not the film. And for this audience member at least, as I re-watched the original, I was struck by how few laughs there were, and how unexciting the famous chase scenes are. If you like blues music, then this film is certainly still worth watching, because it has a rocking soundtrack and plenty of great musical numbers in it. And there's some historical value there for anyone who is into thinking about film and culture. Just don't expect to find it all that funny unless you're a 15 year old boy.

SAW IT 8 Times before it was released (can't say how) and lost count somewhere over 100 Times. Great film - to this day the Aust. Distribution co. Doesn't know what they have. BRILLIANT.

I loved this movie yet im only 9 and not alound to here the sware words parts but I did realise that twiggy is also princess laya in star wars
