Eighteen years after the Brothers original mission from God, Elwood Blues (Dan Aykroyd) is getting out of prison and discovering that much has changed in the time he s been away. His partner Jake is gone, his band is no longer together and the orphange where he grew up has been demolished. Elwood soon realises that he must embark on a whole new mission - to assemble the old band, this time with the help of a soulful bartender (John Goodman), compete at Queen Moussette's (Erykah Badu) Battle of the Bands and set a wayward orphan named Buster on the path to redemption. Special appearances by B.B King, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Johnny Lang, Blues Traveler, Eric Clapton and many more. It s an action packed comedy with lots of Rythmn and Blues. (Fabulous Films)
