REVIEW: One of the most loved iconic music films of all time, The Blues Brothers, Jake and Elwood are available here on DVD. After their release from prison Jake and Elwood go to visit the orphanage where they were raised by nuns only to discover that the church stopped it’s support and will sell the place unless the tax on the property is paid within 11 days.

The brothers decide to raise the money by putting their blues band back together and staging a big gig. They may be on a “mission from God” but they’re making enemies everywhere they go. Featuring performances by some of blues finest: James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and co-starring John Candy, Carrie Fisher, Henry Gibson and Steve Lawrence. A film you never tire of seeing *****
