Dan Aykroyd and John Landis get the band back together for the reunion film Blues Brothers 2000. Less of a sequel and more of a remake, the story is beat for beat the same as the original; which shows a complete lack of originality and creativity, making the film utterly pointless. But beyond that, the tone is inconsistent and is full of cartoonishness and fantasy themes that don’t work. A spectacular mess, Blues Brothers 2000 has no idea what it’s doing.
Boy this movie is so so so so terrible. Just the worst. And I can't believe it was directed by John Landis. Everything is so flat, lazy and stilted I just assumed Dan Akyroyd directed it. Awful.
