Summary
The Blues Brothers: After the release of Jake Blues from prison, he and brother Elwood go to visit the orphanage where they were raised by nuns. They learn that the church stopped its 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.
Blues Brothers 2000: 18 years after the Brother's original "mission from God," Elwood Blues gets out of prison and discovers that much has changed in the time he's been away. His partner, Jake, is gone and Elwood soon realizes that he must embark on a whole new mission--to reassemble the old band with the help of a soulful bartender, compete at Queen Moussette's Battle of the Bands and set a wayward orphan on the path to redemption.
