CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Evading the cops, Jake (John Belushi) and Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) cause a pile-up of dozens of cop cars.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Expanding on their Saturday Night Live characters, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd star as Jake and Elwood Blues, two white boys with black soul. Sporting cool shades and look-alike suits, Jake and Elwood are dispatched on a "mission from God" by their former teacher, Sister Mary Stigmata (Kathleen Freeman). Said mission is to raise $5000 to save an orphanage. In the course of their zany adventures, the Blues Brothers run afoul of neo-Nazi Henry Gibson, perform the theme from Rawhide before the most unruly bar crowd in written history, and lay waste to hundreds of cars on the streets and freeways of Chicago. In case you aren't swept up in the infectuous nuttiness of the brothers Blue, you might have fun spotting film's legion of guest stars, including James Brown, Cab Calloway, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, John Candy, Carrie Fisher, Steve Lawrence, Twiggy, Paul Reubens (aka Pee-Wee Herman), Frank Oz, and Steven Spielberg.

I love the fact that there’s no music during this ridiculously over the top chase. It works perfectly.
6 star wanted level
Nah. If it was a 6-star, they'd be shooting at while they were in their cars...
Driver 2 Survival mode
Ha, so true.
GTA 5 5 star level
Ben Ward Still, that is pretty damn hardcore for a police chase.
"that's where they got that Picasso."
"Yup."
I love how every time these two are in a chase, they always make small talk as if they've been in this situation so many times they're bored with it
New oldsmobiles are in this year..
Lol. Yes! 'Another day at the office....'
It's not that they're bored, they're literally on a mission from god. They know they can't be stopped. To them it's like they're going out to get bread.
They're just cool...😎
I visited Daley Plaza a few years back and asked a front desk guy if they still had the Picasso. He knew exactly what I meant !
Michael Bay should see this. A crash consisting gazillion cars can have not even ONE (1), as in ZERO (0) explosion and it can still be a spectacular thing. Best movie ever.
yes but there was one broken watch
funny thing is, that's true!
Kyntteri
And they are on a mission *FROM GOD*
But there was a scene where the gas station explode
@Captain Twice it was a deleted scene btw
Think about it: All of this could've been avoided if Elwood would've just slowed down at the yellow light.
Linda Smith Nah. Yellow means floor it.
Tyler Durden Unless the light is green before yellow!
But the light was yellow...
Linda Smith
Question: HOW Did Elwood get his license suspended??
True
The use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers, has been approved!!!
That line always got me. Who the hell makes that kind of decision?
a politician on their last term, that's who
Well thank you pal the day I get out of prison my own brother picks me up in a police car
God I love that line!
The best part of that line it the tone the actor says it in. Almost monotone.
Cops destroys their cars then start randomly shooting, reminds me of GTA V.
"The use of unnecessary force in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers has been approved"
hunter dawso What's crazier is that they get the army involved as well.
GTA In The 80's Hahaha
right...what's with the instant shooting
They don't really shoot randomly, the gunfire is all cocentrated precisely on your chest
He turned on the lights going into the tunnel ... very responsible!
Had to - he's wearing sunglasses!
They were still working after all the things that car has smashed into, better make the most of them.
1:55 Best part of the entire chase. That 118 mph moment is for real. They actually did travel that fast!
The speedometer read 120.
120 mph 1980 mphs too. Way scarier then!
A great nod to The French Connection. Another movie with a spectacular car chase scene.
The director was kind of crazy with his movies.
@@MasonKLutz which led to three people being killed on his watch.
Gotta love how there are like infinite police cars that keep on coming even though they destroyed countless amounts of them already.
I suppose it's plausibly possible....Chicago PD has 11,944 officers, lol.
just like gta
Well I have to say, Chicago is a big city and there is alot of cops.
The producers were able to get a lot of cars REAL cheap and most of the time after a stunt like this with a massive crash they salvaged good condition parts from all the wrecked cars to rebuild and reuse some.
GTA 5 lol
2:53 "They broke my watch!!"
vjpearce Jake’s Revenge Strikes again, Again!
Ffs what's with all the watch hate!?!?
I'm gonna catch that sucker if it's the last thing i ever do!!
Lmao
Nice hearing
The fact they actually went 120 there is badass. Because one small bump could have sent the stuntman right into quite a few of those supports.
Yeah insane that this was shot in real time
Yep. Greatest chase scene in movie history.
Cars back then could take it and drive away.
@Mark Booket Not really. I have pics of a 75 LTD Wagon that got a tree in the front end of the _roof_ after ripping through the hood. The driver was drunk as hell and somehow he survived (this belongs in Ripley's Believe It or Not,) the tree missed him by inches; he fell through the floor (which was ripped out) and his boot was jammed between the frame and tree.
If you're wondering "How did it go through the engine block?" It didn't; the car hit the tree starting at the driver-side headlight, and he must have been turning slightly right, because the tree then hit the engine block and ripped the engine off the mounts, twisting the frame, and then finally ending about where the transmission was. The driver, again ridiculously drunk, was probably pinned against the door momentarily before falling through the floor with his right foot stuck between the car frame and tree.
Yeah one wrong move at that speed going through a city and it’s a tragic end for those stunt men or anything in their paths!!!! OMG!!! Best chase scene ever!!!
It's amazing how they did all the practical effects with the Monaco. Also; I don't care what anyone else says: the Blues Mobile is the single coolest vehicle in any movie ever!
It shoot very real, and legit
Its a tough tie between "The Blues Brothers" and "DUEL" for me. Although, I'm very nostalgic about both
closely followed by the ghostbuster's Ecto-1
InternalCombustionGenie nah the coolest has got to be the supercharged fuel injected interceptor from the first mad max
Home of the Mad Sweet Ride, but it ain’t the Bluesmobile. The only car that was on a Mission from God.
1:55 Filmmakers actually got permission to drive down Lake -- between trestles supporting the L, no less -- at more than 100 mph. After Landis shot the sequence he realized it looked as if he simply speeded up the film. So he reshot it with stunt pedestrians on the sidewalks so viewers could tell the drivers were, indeed, going that fast.
I always wondered about that when I heard once that they did 110 MPH through that street scene. Fucking insane!
Best part!!
That side profile camera angle shot IS THE TRUTH-over 100 mph. Then at the 1:59 mark, the shot of the Bluesmobile speedometer is reading 119 mph. That 5 seconds of sound and video is the one of the craziest and most awesome car chase scenes ever filmed, lol !
Too bad the city only allowed two passes at that speed
2:45 - I love how they didn't even try to hide the fact that there's an obvious ramp right there LOL.
I think after trashing a few dozen police cars they decided they couldn't re-shoot it.
there is a smaller one at 2:23
2:17 to 2:19 can even see the shadows of the camera rigs on the Bluesmobile
Of course there's a ramp there! Its there for the same reason why the Bluesmobile just jumped over a police car for no reason, and why it kept going right up until they got to their destination... they're on a Mission from God.
There's no CGI during those days, so that's inevitable.
The greatest car chase ever put to film, whether a drama, comedy, or action film. Just awesome.
To Live and Die in LA begs to differ.
It had alot of action for a musical.
Don't forget The French Connection
RIP and long live John Belushi (January 24, 1949 - March 5, 1982), aged 33
You will always be remembered as a legend.
I love how it reads "turn on headlights" before they enter the first tunnel and how El does that seconds later as if still caring for any traffic rules - great little detail :D
They probably benefited from the light; it's dark and they're wearing sunglasses!
You have to love that 440 sound.. :)
One of my favorite sounds in life!
Thermoquad!!
God this movie was way ahead of its time such a masterpiece!
I love how this is a comedy, but they have a totally legit car chase sequence. Blues Brothers rocks. And look at that, Fast and the Furious -- BEFORE the days of CGI -- NO COMPUTER ANIMATED CARS!!!
And both john belushi and dan aykroyd were doing that stunts for hours
Yuh Kurose well it is dangerous, ,but you have to make the timing
Just a different era for comedy movies. IMO, at least for non animated comedy films, the art of the gag has more or less been lost.
Roughly 3 minutes of a huge car chase at 100MPH+ speeds in Chicago in old wobbly cars from 40 years ago and the entire scene has, effectively, 2 lines of dialogue. Only 1 moment of the scene tries to be hilariously funny, and its the big pile up at the end. But they let the entire scene build up to it. There are some humorous parts of the scene. the picasso line, the few little pile ups, jumping over the police car and shattering the lights, the few "Oh shit" looks as the roar between the bikers and 110 MPH. All of it and they didnt try to force it to be funny. They built suspense and they give you a feeling of "Oh how the fuck are they gonna get out of this one". Even in a movie with so much ridiculousness they just let this pan out somewhat calmly, and the payoff is insane.
Compare that to a comedy movie today, the dialogue would be all over the place, there would be a shit ton of jump fucks, and thered be a ridiculous sound track. The zingers they put in wouldnt even be creative. Just some form of expletive or another. Compare that to a ridiculous part of this movie, and what is the one liner/zinger you get? "Disco pants and haircuts". That little bit of subtlety goes a long way IMO, and it shows in a lot of the great comedy movies and moments over the years. Airplane, blazing saddles, spaceballs are all other examples of movies that, while they included their fair share of immature slapstick humor, a good chunk of the laughs came from creative joke telling. Turning a not funny scene into a funny one not by what said, but by what happens on screen.
Randolph Chenowth no special effects or cgi
Fantastic speech, Randolph Chenowth!
This is not sped up film, they were driving that car at 120mph under the L!
How cool this is to see Wacker drive with only a few cars on it and you can go 100 mph !
whereyat89 very rare is what it is 😂
Spencer Branting - my favorite part of the scene too, when the camera flashes to the speedometer and realizing they are going 120mph!!
and the car changes gear !
lordofbore - ahh , never realized that, I just watched it again! How fast do you think that car could go? 150mph?
I love how realistic this whole scene is! Movies today can't top this...
lol
🧢
Let's face it: the 1980 Blues Brothers is WAY better than the 1998 one!
Florjan Brudar the only thing good about the sequel is the soundtrack
The '98 Blues Brothers was so awful.
It was beyond forced they knew damn well it couldn't remotely come close to this one so I don't know why they bothered
@@GrosvnerMcaffrey Not $ure why they did it either.
@@The12thDimension. Why are you threatening me?
I always thought it was crazy how they actually drove the Bluesmobile like that through Chicago and you can tell it's real because you can see the pack of cigarettes sliding all over the dash
I've heard that they actually got the car up to 110 MPH....which is fucking insane; even for a modern sports car in that type of environment; nevermind an old muscle car like that.
Muscle car? It's a 2 ton sedan with a 440. The engine was multipurposed into muscle cars as well as in the Police Package Monacos, but the Monaco itself was far from a muscle car.
MrWolfSnack
Personally, I think ANY car with a 440 can be a muscle car.
I've never understood how you get such little horsepower (220) from a 440 V8! Is American fuel poor quality or was it emission regs perhaps?
@John Gait No, it was a pre-emission car or so they said. I thought cars in America started getting catalytic converters for the 1974 model year (which that Dodge was, a '74) but maybe it wasn't the same for all manufacturers. Cars in America do have reputation for being low on power though, I've heard it's to keep them lasting longer. EDIT: 1975 models are the ones that first got Catalytic Converters.
The best car chase ever filmed imo. The visceral sound of that 440, the sirens, the speed. What a movie.
I could listen to that engine snarl and roar going 120 mph all day
They were on a mission from God...
skatemetrix Good thing they weren't on a mission from Allah, otherwise they would have been running over a lot of people.
Don't ruin the joke
Lord Humongous Nobody would watch that.
2:14 - was scary as hell - those bicyclists were very much in mortal danger.
@@lordhumongous371 🤐
Best car chase of all time.
bud ekins one of the funniest
I agree,out of all the chase scenes I've seen in movies and TV, this is still the best, not just what was shown here, but from where they had the concert all the way to Chicago! Craziest chase I've ever seen!
This and the car chase with nick fury in the Winter soldier are the best
Yes, this Mônaco and one black Charger R/T 68 in Bullitt(•‿•)
@@pavlistarvmterramater3579 Yes! Blues Bros and Bullitt! Great chases!
Love the sound of that 440 Magnum V8.
When the cops cause more damage than the criminals they’re trying to catch
This is why you don't run yellow lights
😩
XD because if you do, this will happen!
The light was yellow Sir.....
Nah, unless I'm far away I floor it, I catch red lights all the time, I'm sick of being stuck at em
Best scene ever! If only more movies were like this!
not even fast and furious can top that
+alex kanyima Using all real car props instantly beats anything that cheap franchise can do.
Goabnb94 that scène is no Cgi, no special effects, Just practical, dan and john were in that car there is no stunt double at all,
+Lars van Goch NO CAN DO - Liberals wouldn't allow it - it would hurt their sensitive feelings
+Michael Martin Really? i didn't know that.
It's amazing they actually drove those cars at 110mph-120mph!
if you gave a Dodge Monaco Police Interceptor enough room...they would break 140...which is insane for a car that weighs 5100 pounds and has almost zero suspension.The scene under the EL, John Landis claimed they did real time and hit 130
Crazy
netrioter Yup....They did that. It was rumored that they took out a couple of those steel girders under the L and paid big time to replace them. They indeed did those shots at speed. The actual Dodge that the bros were driving DID have suspension mods for this scene. And they wrecked about 30 others, not including the police cars intentionally trashed. The budget for this flick was insane.
netrioter
Well I imagine weighing 5100 pounds, at speed has a ton of downforce! LOL
I went 115 mph in a 1976 laguna s3 . Smooth!
Love the visual and sound effects at 1:51 & 1:55 . Driving through Chicago at 117mph is so cool. Stunt men must have had a blast doing this.
One of the greatest movie scenes of all time as far as i am concerned. This movie was entertaining as hell.
RIP John Belushi.
If they reboot the movie series, they should have Jim be in John's spot, while Dan can reprise his role.
You really gotta hand it to those brave stunt drivers. This is one helluva car chase, and those stunt drivers, riggers, and coordinators know their shit!
How did they manage to get so many Police cars, and even destroying them.
They were on a mission from God.
They were old police cars the city of Chicago was retiring. Instead of being turned into taxi cabs, the movie producers bought them. This is a common practice when filming movies.
The real police cars around 1980 were 1977 or later cars. I think any car over 3 years old they auction off like the Bluesmobile.
I wasn't easy. They spent so much money they went over budget.
production value son
I love how casual the Blues Brothers are whilst they're being chased by Chicago's *ENTIRE POLICE FORCE.*
That reminds me of the song from Jefferson Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now
00:49
At Monroe, the Bluesmobile races up an exit ramp and vaults a squad car in what Landis called his "favorite stunt.'' Landis wanted the driver to take out the Mars lights on top of the police car, but the driver could only guarantee he could clear the cop car. But after Belushi and Aykroyd each offered him $1,000 ($3,200 each adjusted for inflation), his car ended up launching over the police car AND clipping BOTH Mars lights in one take.
"That's where they got that Picasso" never, ever fails to completely crack me up.
My God, this is one of the funniest movies of all time. I remember watching it for the first time around '84 and was in tears I was laughing so hard. I've seen it countless times, and I laugh just as hard now.
The Blues Brothers once held the world record for most cars destroyed in a movie before it surpassed it'self on the sequel.
At 1:51, IMDb says when they shot under the elevated train line, the city of Chicago gave them two passes to shoot that sequence very early on a Sunday morning. Once for the stunt driving wide shots where they legit hit 120mph and then again with pedestrians added and narrowly missing other vehicles. Landis said it was his finest moment in planning and execution.
And they did all this without a rocket launcher. Top that GTA.
just love the sound of that 440 winding out
I saw an original rough cut of this at UCLA with John Landis; there were probably a couple hundred of us in the audience. We could tell it would become a great movie.
Although this one of the most comical car chases of cinema, it really does reveal how awesome Elwood is at driving, as well as a striking contrast between genuinely good stunt driving and how the filmmakers were trying to parody car chases of the time...
0:35 Compensating for the Dodge's massive weight shift after the slalom, perhaps a bit too much?
0:50 A little help from God
1:20 Elwood makes it through the next turn at this speed and the cops don't because he moves to the outside lane and then cuts over the median to get the best apex for that corner
2:20 The only thing Elwood couldn't avoid before having to turn
The shot at 0:29 where you can really see aykroyd driving with Belushi is awesome. And all the shots before that on the hood are so convincing looking. Either it's the best back projection ever or they really were driving
Compared to the one where they're on the parking lot of the mall
I think they're really driving in this scene
"That's where they got that Picasso!"
"Yup..."
this movie will always be gold
The Blues Mobile. Built by Dodge, powered by Elwood.
*Powered by Gawd
Most badass part of this chase scene is when the Blues Mobile shoots by at 110 miles per hour 1:54
This is the best car chase ever filmed...and that's why John Landis is a legendary film-maker.
I just love the power of the practical effects, the engines of the vehicles don't hide but amplify the nature of the characters, each pass by with those fully practical crash, with them going 120 miles per hour on the long stretch the fact the cameras won't stay still and are rumbling with the chassis of the cars is fantastic
I watched ths back in the 80's in West Germany.
It was such a relief from the Stress We HOWLED
like Banshees. Loved it then and Still do.
3rD Armored Division West Germany.
The best part is seeing the speedometer at 120mph under the L and the look on Jake's and Elwood's faces!
1:54....SHIT!!!!
Haulin ASS
Camera guy was on that one!!! lol
This is a great chase scene compared to the chases of today.. now a days, everything is zoomed in and shaky to where you can't tell what the hell is going on.. Here, the cameras are still and you can see everything that is going on... great stuff.
0:49 When they jump over the cop car and the rear tire smashes the police light is just perfect 👍
Not a lick of CG anywhere...
Wonderful
Ikr movies nowadays are unrealistic.
raddean321 yes, cause movies used to be realistic. Are you you an idiot?
Also Ok, boomer
@@Hamster_Pants Did you read my comment correctly? I said movies nowadays are unrealistic. Which means movies back then we're realistic. Are you an idiot?
They must have had so much fun filming this. That the wheel of the flying car took out the cop lights on that one cop car. 0:49. Perfection.
That cost Dan Akroyd 50$. He bet the stunt driver he couldn't do it.
This movie was released 40 years ago this year.
@ 2:53 "They broke my watch!"
🤣🤣🤣little known running gag throughout the movie.
you can have Bullet and the French Connection, for me THIS is the greatest film car chase ever,
chriskoob Ronin?
@@georgecampbell3687 Ronin's great! Especially the against traffic scenes! Still like Blues Bros too!
I love how Belushi is getting thrown around like a ragdoll and trying to hold on for dear life, while Ackroyd is Just Whippin in that wheel around like a pro.
Love how they are both so complacent at 115 mph crossing intersections....awesome movie.
WOW. The CGI is incredible!
I never boring to see that movie!!!! Masterpiece!!!!
This is definitely Lower Wacker Drive.

I like the ending cops just start shooting lol
It cracks me up every damn time. SONOFABITCH!!!!
You gotta love the fact that they were so calm about it
Amen to the cars wrecked in the making of this movie
Not likely, they probably became K-cars. . .
They died for a worthy cause....
I busted my gut watching this!!!!!! 0:49
1:38, I love how it keeps intensifying!!!
2:51, ahhhh the daily sounds of Chicago.

Reminds me of GTA
Love the shit slidin' back and forth on the dash!!!
Talk about Chicago pride
nothing like 440 V-8 to sing that pride
+Home of the Mad
There's no replacement for displacement.... Thank god the bluesmobile wasn't a hond civic!

no wonder they say ignorance is bliss, you don't have to deal with problems
@@homeofthemad3044 We do have an infinite amount of oil.
Why don't they make car chases like this anymore?
Because filmmakers and studio executives are pussies who are too afraid of anyone getting hurt... even from a paper cut.
Max Power no probably its cause on the car chase scene in the second blues brothers -when the police got into another Pile -up. One of the Stuntmen Died in the crash while filming.
+Abram Rodriguez well, they had safety belts
Well, they've switched to CGI and you don't have a lot of lawsuits on your hands to worry about. It still pisses me off to this day, but the 1980s though was the realistic version of GTA 5 if not better. I've read L.A.'s history back in the '80s and there was a LOT and I mean A LOT of DRUG ABUSE and jackoffs in the streets. Also, police brutality was a thing back then and they've attacked different minority groups. Other than all of the negative things, life in L.A. was pretty normal and awesome at the same time. This is usually one of the causes why I wanna re-live the 1980's for myself and experience it.
The Cops in this movie just like the Cops today in real life...LOL
Hah! Once the scene was over, I took off my headphones and heard police sirens outside. :)
Lol, did you rush to the window to see if they were chasing a black & white dodge?
At 1:55 they really ran that old Dodge through Chicago at 120 mph!
They don't make cars like that anymore, solid rear axle and iron block V8's!!!!!!
those things took up half a block to park. a truck motor in a four door is outrageous! need a second job just to keep them in fuel nowadays - no leaded petrol anymore drove down the crime rate
CPD Cars:
Handling: aight imma head out
Those Cops in the pile up where pissed
"Sonofabitch" and starts firing. LOLOL
A lot of them had broke watches
Police notice: Excessive violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers...has been approved.
Best movie car chase EVER!!!
Hollywood now days: CGI EVERYTHING
Watching this on bluray brought a manly little tear to my eye. It's truly beautiful...
The Blues Brothers was my favorite movie
Best scene of the whole movie.
2:51 Cops in GTA IV when you resist arrest or kill a Cop with a gun.
0:34 Impressive that they let them do that shot. I don't even think Belushi has a seat belt on.
Did they really driving at high speeds with the mounted camera,if it's true. That's some good driving from aykroyd
Nor does Elwood, you can see both belts just moving around. And historically, in the 1970s and early 1980s, who wore seat belts? Few people.
and here at 0:47 a stuntman earns 50 bucks from Dan Ankryod, who bet him he couldnt knock the light off of the cop car lol
Was that a legit bet
It was actually a $1,000 bet.
At 1:55. My favorite scene in the whole movie. A stuntman is driving that car flat out down a city street in between support columns. No CGI or special effects, just an absolute professional behind the wheel. Does anyone know where in Chicago this was actually shot?
I see the Mcdonalds there. There is a Mcdonalds on Wabash and L train stops on Wabash. I've been there many times. If I had to guess i would say hes driving on Wabash and the L stop is the Randolph/Wabash. There is a street sign in the shot but i cant read it.
I like how the film people didn't just use any streets, they used Wacker and L train streets to give the scene some 'special effects.'
Looks like Lake Street.
Lower wacker drive and lower Michigan ave bridge over the river. As well as under the el train on Wells street back over the river into the Loop again
Blues Brothers: jumps over car
First cop car: can't go over it, can't go around it, gonna have to *go through it!*
The dodge sounds mean flying by at 1:55.
Thermoquad carburetor.
Fun fact. Some of the extra undamaged Chicago police movie cars from this film are later reused for the tv show " Hill Street Blues". They simply replaced the word "Chicago" with the word "Metro" on the cars and changed the roof lights from blue to red.
2:22 when my friends say lets do police roleplay
The Blues Brothers is a definition of several Universal Masterpieces. Despicable Me, Only Yesterday, Animal House, Jaws, Back to the Future, ET, to Name a few.
