* RageBreakingPoint: Throughout, the Critic's patience is sorely tried by this game, but the final straw comes when [[ThatOneLevel the "friendly" snake]] accidentally knocks Elwood off the edge to his death, which triggers a GameOver screen.

'''Video Game:''' ''The Blues Brothers: Jukebox Adventure'' (1994)
!!This review provides examples of:
* AllThereInTheManual: Upon encountering a "possessed killer lawnmower", the Critic checks the manual for the game's storyline. Later on, while ranting about the snake, he reads the manual again after becoming curious about what the snake actually is.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: After the opening sequence, the Critic acknowledges the viewer for buying the DVD.
* FakeDifficulty: One of the Critic's complaints is that you start off with plenty of records to throw at enemies and more than enough time to finish the stage, but the game keeps giving you less records to start each stage off with until you have none at all, and the default time limit is inconsistent between levels. He also complains about how slippery the controls are and how difficult it is to climb chains.
* HereWeGoAgain: At the end of the review, the Critic has his fill of the game and throws it out in the cold. It is soon discovered by [[WebVideo/BumReviews Chester A. Bum]], who plays it during the credits. Although he finds the slippery controls amusing, he is baffled by the use of cakes as PowerUpFood and how the LevelGoal is the very thing your trying to escape from, and gets frustrated by the chains and the snake. Chet abandons the game as well, only for Dominic from ''WebVideo/VideoGameConfessions'' to come across it as well...
* InformedAttribute: The Critic checks the manual to see what it says about the snake, and is annoyed when it is described as "a friendly creature".
-->'''Critic:''' Does that thing look ''remotely'' friendly to you? Does it act like it's friendly? If it's so friendly, how come he's always trying to knock me off and push me down every chance he gets?
* ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext: The Critic reads the manual to check the storyline and see if it justifies the existence of possessed killer lawnmowers. He learns that the Blues Brothers got trapped inside a jukebox on their way to Chicago and must escape.
* MythologyGag: During the opening sequence, he eats a bowl of Cheerios 2, which comes from an earlier sketch Doug Walker made.
* NeverBareHeaded: The Critic apparently sleeps with his hat on.
* NoOSHACompliance: The Critic makes a comment about this in the game's factory levels.
-->'''Critic:''' Wouldn't they close down these factories due to safety hazards?
* PublicDomainSoundtrack: "Water Music Suite No. 2" for the Critic's morning routine, "William Tell Overture" for his rage at the game after ten minutes of playing it.
* ShoutOut:
** The Critic describes the "Rock-rock-rock-rock and roll!" battle cry as "[[Series/TheMuppetShow Fozzie Bear]] if he was trying to go all metal".
** He also compares the use of records as weapons to ''VideoGame/RevolutionX''.
* SubvertedCatchPhrase: "I'm The Nostalgic Critic, and... God have mercy on his soul."
* YankTheDogsChain: The Critic is relieved when the game appears to move away from factory levels, only for another factory level to come up soon afterwards.
