The Blues Brothers - 5 stars out of 10

The Blues Brothers - 5 stars out of 10

While it does not provide a strong plot, The Blues Brothers establishes itself as a classic through entertaining music and awesome cameos by James Brown, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, and Cab Calloway.  This movie's infamous car chases are awesome as they manage to destroy every kiosk in a mall and later create a pile-up of a dozen cop cars in the median.  Although it is unlikely that I would ever watch this movie again with 100% attentiveness, I would definitely put it on in the background and focus during the music cameos and chase scenes.
