Skip the film and buy the soundtrack.

| Original Score: C | Jan 19, 2023

As a sequel, it is an inevitable disappointment. As a celebration of the original, staged with goodwill and love, it is a pretty enjoyable way to spend two hours.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jul 20, 2022

Now a sequel has arrived, Blues Brothers 2000, offering more of the same. And less.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 9, 2018

If viewed at this late date, it provides mostly nostalgia for the pairing of the lovable soulmates.

| Original Score: B- | Jun 7, 2016

It goes without saying that Blues Brothers 2000 doesn't carry the original's significance and R-rated personality, yet select treats remain, while the soundtrack wails triumphantly.

| Original Score: D | Sep 7, 2011

The sequel offers more of the same, only less.

Endless scenes of pointless buffoonery and crashing cars.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 18, 2008

There must be a niche audience for this travesty -- probably among teenagers whose hearing and mental faculties are impaired.

This isn't a sequel, it's a remake.

Another time, another planet.

Buy the soundtrack and rent the one with Belushi.

Easily one of the most worthless, shameless, and unnecessary sequels ever concocted. Not even the music can save it.

Landis apparently lost almost any trace of inspiration or creativity.

The greatest car crash ever, but not a funny movie.

Not bad. Too bad it's not good, either.
