There are only two good cops in L.A., and they’re both big douchy guys with cool names and they’re stopping all the crime single handedly. Er, um, double handedly. That’s right, they’re Tango and Cash.

The two eponymous police officers are doing great until a drug lord decides to take them off the street and out of the history books. He frames them for murder and then tries to have them murdered in prison. It would work, except they’re Tango and Cash and electricity for some reason doesn’t hurt them.

The movie is basically two puffy Keanu Reeves playing buddy cops and breaking out of the worst-run jail of all time. And it’s kinda fun.

    I sorta love this movie, from Jack Palance’s slam poetry delivery to his weird insistence to not kill Tango and Cash.i also love the Captain’s quip after Stallone mistakes him for an intruder at Kurt Russell’s sister’s house. After Stallone jumps through the screen door and attacks the him, the Captain says, Is this the way you screen all your guests?”Also, can anyone name a single cop, besides one that you personally know. Like, have you ever seen a headline like “Detective X Busts Another Criminal?”
