one of a kind All u need to know about how great this film is , is to look at its cast ,John Belushi,, Dan Aykroyd, John Candy , Carrie Fisher, James Brown , Aretha Franklyn, Twiggy, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles,and the other one.
Yes its possibly dated, times have changed infact the Nazi scenes remind me of a happier time when Nazis where universally despised but lets not get too political.
its a happy feel good movie with not possibly but defiantly the best soundtrack ever of any movie. the sound track alone is worth a 10
Ive not even touched on the producer , John Landis who to me is one of the finest producers of the 80s. with such credits as the Michael Jackson thriller video and American Werewolf in London ( which has possibly the best on screen werewolf transformation sequences in movie history) you just know your in for a great 2 hours and 13 mins ride.
A cult classic & deservedly so.
