Full of laughs and wonderful John Landis absurdity. A great comedy but ultimately too long, did not need to be over 2 hours
An instant classic from the day it premiered, and one of the greatest comedy’s of all time!
Funny, likable characters, good music, and novel, simple yet engaging story.
A cult classic. Just an easy watch with a great soundtrack. Timeless
Classic comedy. Over the top, but charming and deliberate. Probably set the tone for much worse movies to follow.
The best damn comedy. Sure some of the acting sucks and there’s bad lip-sync, but it has so much character and charm you have to love it.
Featuring a phenomenal rock n’ roll soundtrack and the genius pairing of Aykroyd & Belushi, this is a hugely enjoyable, feel good comedy
This film was so popular that the cast did a musical tour nationwide. That should tell you how great the music and cast is.
Arguably one of the best musicals ever made.
Great music, fun car action, and I don't think you need anything else. Extended cut is better ofc.
