Plot: Jake Blues is just out of jail, and teams up with his brother, Elwood on a 'mission from God' to raise funds for the orphanage in which they grew up. The only thing they can do is do what they do best: play music. So they get their old band together, and set out on their way—while getting in a bit of trouble here and there.
Almost as old as I am but this film is so much fun. Zany, funny, off the wall with great music. Watched it once again earlier and it still brought a smile to my face.
