Movie Reviews

Christian Science Monitor - 6/10 by David SterrittThe picture certainly succeeds at reproducing Belushi's manic energy and wired-up sensibility. But it fails to give any meaningful insights into a couple of issues that must be dealt with if his biography is to have any enduring value.
Chicago Tribune - 6/10 by Gene SiskelThe result is a film that hedges its bets but still manages to portray the destructive power of drugs.
Chicago Tribune - 5/10 by Dave KehrGiven the impossibility of his assignment, Michael Chiklis doesn't do half badly as Belushi -- he`s clearly a better actor, though not necessarily a better comic, than the original -- but otherwise Wired can claim only camp value.
Orlando Sentinel - 4/10 by Jay BoyarYou leave this movie unenlightened about who John Belushi really was, or why he abused himself so badly.
Washington Post - 4/10 by Desson ThomsonDespite a histrionic outpouring of growls, snorts, yells and re-creations of familiar Belushi shticks, from Jake Elmore to Joe Cocker, Chiklis seems to miss every opportunity to redeem himself.
Rolling Stone - 4/10 by Peter TraversIt's excruciating to watch Chiklis drain the wit from such classic Belushi routines as the Samurai, the Bees and the Blues Brothers.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 4/10 by Carrie RickeyWhat you're left with is a vague portrait of the artist as the victim of too much, too soon.
Tulsa World - 3/10 by Dennis KingA good portion of the film's stroll down memory lane attempts to recreate some of the Belushi-Dan Aykroyd SNL routines, and they look pale by comparison with the real things.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel - 2/10 by Roger HurlburtEvery time the film makes some sense, the sweaty and sleepless face of Belushi invades in close-up and we know it`s only a matter of time before director Peerce will make us privy to the comic`s needless death.
Time Out - 0/10 by Brian CasePerhaps the worst thing about Wired is that it is totally unfunny.
