Critic Reviews of "The Blues Brothers"
Washington PostDecember 18, 2015There is no more material sustaining The Blues Brothers"than one would find in a silent comedy short running 10 or 20 minutes.
Time OutJuly 24, 2009The film retains a huge nostalgic kick, thanks in large part to Aykroyd and Belushi's easy rapport, a smattering of daft, shaggy humour and some truly iconic musical sequences.
TIME MagazineAugust 20, 2008A demolition symphony that works with the cold efficiency of a Moog synthesizer gone sadistic.
VarietyApril 01, 2008Given all the chaos, director and, with Aykroyd, cowriter, John Landis manages to keep things reasonably controlled and in a straight line.
Chicago ReaderApril 01, 2008The humor is predicated on underplaying in overscaled situations, which is sporadically funny in a Keaton-esque way but soon sputters out through sheer, uninspired repetition.
Chicago Sun-TimesOctober 23, 2004There's even room, in the midst of the carnage and mayhem, for a surprising amount of grace, humor, and whimsy.
Antagony & EcstasyDecember 06, 2016The Blues Brothers is, by any objective standard, a messy wreck... That this is so does not in anyway change that it is an absolutely wonderful movie.
IGN DVDJanuary 29, 2012A dazzlingly enjoyable, memorable road trip of comedy and music from two of SNL's best.
ColeSmithey.comOctober 25, 2011...an epic musically charged comedy, the likes of which has never been seen before or since.
Common Sense MediaDecember 18, 2010A cult classic for adults and older teens.
Observer (UK)July 28, 2009This long, expensive 1980 cult movie has an energy and individuality lacking in similar films nowadays.
