Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

'Tango & Cash (1989)' is a cheesy 80s movie, for sure, despite being released at the very end of that decade. While it's choppily edited (thanks, in part, due to its heavy initial censorship at the hands of the BBFC) and most of its silly set-pieces are essentially stolen from other, more successful attempts (mostly Jackie Chan's 'Police Story (1985)'), the piece provides the somewhat schlocky but still sort of undeniable fun you'd expect from such a picture. This is mainly due to the light tone and legitimate chemistry between its two stars - who both play refreshingly cheerful and slightly self-aware parts, especially when compared to Stallone's usually stone-faced repertoire. The production problems soon start to show, though, and the fun only stretches so far to cover-up the flick's fairly haphazard feel. The stupid plot-points and hammy acting (from essentially all except the leads) perforate most scenes to the point that you couldn't exactly call any of it technically 'good'. Yet, there's always that gnawing yet knowing sense that you're irreverently enjoying it, to an extent, despite all this. To be honest, that's the main thing. 6/10

Wow the cheese factor is high with this outrageous buddy cop movie, however once I got over that aspect and just went with it, its not a terrible movie. -Well yes it is but ultimately I had so much fun not knowing what was going to come at me next in the way of bizarre situations, 80's clichés, monster truck rally's and corny one liners that I have to admit to really enjoying it.This must have been really something back in its day too because it employs every 80's action movie cliché going. The "witty" one-liners, the bad music, the incredulous situations, ridiculous bad guys with terrible fake accents, Kurt's big boofie mullet -very reminiscent of Mel Gibson's hairdo in 'Lethal Weapon' actually and gay innuendos all over the place including a lengthy homoerotic shower where they make fun of each others junk in a weird sort of cock-off.Anyways, Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell play two rival narcotics cops in L.A. Sly is the wire rimmed, fancy suit wearing banker type -fun to see him in this role and Russell is the loose cannon with a gun in his cowboy boot?! They wind up getting framed by a powerful drug dealer (Jack Palance) and must work together to escape a prison under his control and get their revenge.The prison is the craziest thing; with a distinct lack of prisoners, great showers, the bad guys come and go as they please, there are meetings in the basement, and live electrical wires all over the place.Following their escape the insane situations continue including Russell dressing as a woman then going to a lab that not only has several guns hanging about but a pile of laundry on the floor that fits him perfectly, they visit to a stripper bar, gun fights, bombs, a monster truck rally! and the bad lines go on and on. It's hilarious. 1/14/16

This was the last Action film from the 80's that Stallone made and it become my favorite Action thriller from my childhood. I grew up with this film. Tango & Cash is 1989 underrated Action "classic" film. The amalgamation of Sylvester Stallone's sheer magnetism, and Kurt Russell's commanding stage presence, has yielded a sonnet the likes of which all Films aspire to be. Stallone portrays "Raymond 'Ray' Tango" a highly decorated narcotics detective from Beverly Hills, who penchant for the stock market, has granted him not only the finer things in life but also a means to express his sophisticated nature and aspirations of financial independence. Stallone masterfully shows the dichotomy of a character who is highly educated and well mannered, yet is beset in a cesspool of crime and depravity, Tango yearns for a better society yet will not rest on his laurels of law and order. "Gabriel 'Gabe' Cash" portrayed by the immaculate Kurt Russell, is the antipodean of Stallone's level headed Tango. Cash is pugnacious, assertive, and jealous yet his diligence to enforce law and order at all cost define this tortured soul. Although this crass inner city detective has a disheveled appearance and tough exterior he is simply trying to hide his true feelings and desires for true love in an otherwise barbaric society. All in all this film is the crowning achievement of Stallone and Russell and the Hollywood film industry. It is a cut of history, when master Artisans the like of Russell and Stallone are brought together at their peak with visionaries leading them to produce what is their destiny FUBAR!!!!!!!!! It is my favorite best action film and the second Stallone best film along with Cobra from the 80's. I love the action sequences, the prison sequences, I love Robert Z'Dar as "The Jaw" in the film he is more memorable for me Matt Cordell as Maniac Cop from the 80's. That is why I love the films from the 80's and 90's more than I do now.Tango & Cash is a 1989 American buddy cop action comedy film that was mainly directed by Andrei Konchalovsky, although Albert Magnoli took over in the later stages of filming.[3] It stars Sylvester Stallone, Kurt Russell, Jack Palance, and Teri Hatcher. The film was released in the United States on December 22, 1989.The film describes the struggle of Raymond Tango and Gabriel Cash, two rival LAPD narcotics detectives, who are forced to work together after the criminal mastermind Yves Perret frames both of them for murder.Two cops are framed and must clear their names. this was the only film directed from Andrei Konchalovsky that stayed in my memories from him. The director for me in unknown, sorry. Sylvester Stallone did great job portraying his character L.A. Cop Raymond Tango. Kurt Russell was awesome as L.A. Cop Gabriel Cash. Teri Hatcher as Katherine "Kiki" Tango was excellent as Ray's sister. Yes she was his sister not his mistress, girlfriend or his wife, she was his sister which I love in this movie! Jack Palance as crime boss Yves Perret was excellent villain. Brion James as Requin was amazingly tough guy villain. James Hong as Quan another villain was also awesome. The most awesome to me was Robert Z'Dar as "The Jaw" he was terrific in this film.I love this film to death I love it is my favorite film and I love it to death!10/10 Grade: A+ Studio: Warner Bros.

Hilarious! A sweatpant fantasy by two inimitable retards acting within an unparallel series of deranged scenes, a film that would have served far better in a fictional novel, focused to tell the story of the bedtime delusions of an overdosing drug addict, plunged within the depths of an unending state of paranoid dementation.A movie inundated with stereotypical absurdities at nearly every moment, is no wonder why the only viewers to cite this movie with any realistic appreciation, could only suffer from an immense degree of infinite gullibility.Hollywood must be in utter admiration for a musclebound airhead to leap the stage, that thinks as if his brain was lodges up his ass, and utters every word from his mouth as if his tongue was swallowed in his throat, but what about those big arms of his? The film would have been much more fit for view, if the two of these flagrant neanderthals tied bandanas around there hollow heads and screamed cowabunga, but how could they well have done that without ripping off a classic youth movie, no less a cartoon, that yet displayed far greater intellect and creativity to it's viewers?
