Tango & Cash

1989 · 104 min

Loud, silly, explosion-packed buddy-cop romp that coasts on the two leads' bickering chemistry and never takes itself seriously.

Tagline: Two of L.A.'s top rival cops are going to have to work together… Even if it kills them.
Overview: Ray Tango and Gabriel Cash are two successful narcotics detectives who can't stand each other. Crime lord Yves Perret, furious at the loss of income they have caused him, plots an elaborate revenge against them.
How it feels: Light, campy, absurd and tense. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Friendship, revenge, betrayal, justice
Content: Strong violence and language. Mild gore and sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
