Blues Brothers

[lokiju]

I've never seen Blues Brothers and neither has my friend, so we watched it last night to see why this now 25 year old movie was such a "cult hit" and both couldn't believe how completely pointless this movie was.

I can't for the life of me figure out why this movie is considered such a classic

EDIT:

I'm seem to have struck a nerve

It's just a (bad) movie!

What was so great about it?

I love movies but just couldn't see any merit in this one.

Movies have changed since then, obviously. What was good then doesn't necessarily have to be good now.

is this some sort of parady?

just watching the trailer makes me happy http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8796087469262530282&q=Blues+Brothers

I hate Illinois Nazis.

Honestly not a parody, I just couldn't get into it.

You're not supposed to find a deeper meaning in that movie. Enjoy the comedy, it's hilarious.

I love those movies!

Maybe I needed to see in back in the '80's to get the proper effect.
