Jake Blues rejoins his brother Elwood after being released from prison, and the duo has just days to reunite their legendary R&B band for a musical benefit to raise funds to save the Catholic home where the two were raised, with plenty of laughs, car crashes, and slapstick enroute! The film features musical numbers by James Brown, Cab Calloway, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles and John Lee Hooker.
After his release from prison, Jake (John Belushi) reunites with his brother, Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) -- collectively known as the "Blues Brothers." Jake's first task is to save the orphanage the brothers grew up in from closing, by raising $5,000 to pay back taxes. The two are convinced they can earn the money by getting their old band back together. However, after playing several gigs and making a few enemies, including the police, the brothers face daunting odds to deliver the money on time.
