Summary: Nowhere near as good as part 1
Review: Unfortunatley for all John Bleushi/Blues brothers fans, this movie was a huge disappointment, and not really worth waiting for.The movie plot was similar to its smash hit 1980's prequel minus Jake(The late, great John Belushi)(We all miss you John). Elwood wants to get the band together again(Doesn't the idiot remember what trouble it got tham all into 18 years ago?), only this time its harder because they all have lives and careers of their own, and after taking 10-year-old Orphan, Buster, under his wing, the police think Buster was kidnapped and are hot on Elwood's trail. A highly predictable movie. The only reason it rates 2 stars is because Dan Akyroyd is in it, and the songs are still funny.

Summary: Blues Don't Bother Me
Review: This movie is great! It is basically a remake of the movie and it's only down points are John Goodman as Mighty Mack and Cab Chamberlens "flight" at the tent revival meeting. There are some good points about the absence of John Belushi as Jake Blues. Dan Aykroyd gets to sing a lot more and provides a reason for Frank Oz to appear as the warden. 99.9% worth it.

Summary: Blues Galore!
Review: This film is basically the same as the first movie from the 80s, but you've *got* to have it because of the music. Many, many great Blues musicians play in this movie at the end of it, including legends like BB King, Eric Clapton, James Brown, Bo Diddley, Aretha Franklin and many, many others. This is a must-have!

Summary: Inherently Sad
Review: Even if this had been an excellent film, which it is not, there would have been something inherently sad about it. That Belushi's frenzied, comical zeal is missing goes without saying, but seeing Elwood without his brother just seems wrong. It is impossible to view this film without feeling impacted by the real-life tragedy of Belushi's death. In fact, one of the best scenes in "BB2000" is a dialogue-free, wide-view shot of the warden telling Elwood that Jake has died, and Elwood's physical reaction to the news. Goodman is game, but his timid character leaves Aykroyd as the leader of the band and the film, which seems totally antithetical to Elwood's original, understated demeanor. Jim Belushi, with the same sense of danger as his brother (both consistently seem about a second away from total meltdown), would have made a lot more sense. The apparent desire for a PG-13 rating really seems to damper the "anything goes" spirit of the whole Blues Brothers act, further weakening an already desperate venture. As a huge fan of the Blues Brothers, I am glad to be able to say that there are some stunning moments on the soundtrack. At least that component of the Blues Brothers has been kept alive -- exposing mainstream culture to some great music, predominantly ignored by the masses. The Blues Brothers may not have been the best blues singers around, but they surrounded themselves with talent that might not gotten the attention it deserved without them. This is about the only thing the two films have in common (except for a shamelessly unimaginative re-hash of the original's plot). Thanks for trying, guys, but the king is dead.

Summary: The Blues Brothers 2000
Review: Sorry for my bad english, but this video is amazing, wonderful, I never tought that any film could be better than the original Blues Brothers from 1980, but this second is ten times better, the musics are splendid, as the wonderful blues and soul men, the best in the worl, who plays in this film. Congratulations, Aykroid and Landis. If it was possible, I would like to give a rating of 11 to this film. Really wonderful! I loved it, and I will never forget the jam session at Queen Mousette's palace!

Summary: Disappointed I couldn't give ZERO stars
Review: While John Goodman tries, he fails. This movie is more of a sarcastic twist off Blues BROTHERS which is a great movie. They tried to make Blues Brothers (ThE FAMILY MOVIE) well, blues brothers aren't about making the 3 years old smile.... This should be called the KID VERSION of Blues Brothers---don't waste your time

Summary: John Belushi is spinning in his grave!
Review: If you loved the first film, because it was so much more than just another slapstick, you'll hate this for exactly the same reason. Yes its more of the same, because its entirely unoriginal, but most people understand that because something is funny the first time doesnt ensure it will be funny when copied! The plot is weak, no I take it back I caould'nt really comment on the plot, I could'nt find one! The only slim consolation is that at least I wont be around for Blues Brothers 3000!

Summary: AWESOME
Review: I'll tell you what sold me on this movie! THere is one scene in the movie where the police are chasing the BBband and they get away but all those police that are after them, just keeping piling up one after the other. I laughed until i almost cried and wet my pants. I don't know if that was an official thing, but it was THE BIGGEST CAR CRASH EVER FILMED! JOHN LANDIS

Summary: BLUES BROTHERs 2000 BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL!
Review: Never before has there been such an epic of a movie (useing the word epic loosely). Actually I LOVE this movie! It's better than the Original which I also liked. It's hard to believe they could improve on the original clasic but they did! New effects and more NEO NAZI + MAFIEA + KKK bashing! Ending with a spelling binding twist turn that you would never see coming! BUY IT!

Summary: PASSION FOR BLUES
Review: I think that the creation of the Blues Brothers was one of the best ideas a person could ever think up! Before seeing BB2000 I didn't even have a good idea of what Blues music was like. Since seeing this great movie with a simple but very entertaining storyline I sought out the original and have bought the Blues Brothers CD's. Blues Brothers 2000 is funny, and Buster is a great character to have in the new film. I prefer the original, but at least the sequel is different, not the same storyline.Using most of the original characters with a few new editions is a marvellous idea and it worked really well. This film is a must for anyone who enjoys listening to Blues music, and enjoys lighthearted comedy!
