Highly enjoyable and relentlessly OTT buddy cop movie with Kurt and Sly.

Director Andrey Konchalovskiy employs none of his talent from the Russian theatre. But sets a great pace and keeps the movie fast, energetic and fun. Kurt Russell is hilarious as Cash, Stallone is on form as Tango and look out for a young Terri Hatcher and Tango's sister.

The films basically a collection of scenes written around a series of one-liners and action set pieces. Listen out for gems like:

Ray Tango: Rambo? Rambo's a pussy. (Yes, Stallone actually says this)

Ray Tango: I've got good news and bad news.
Gabriel Cash: What's the bad news?
Ray Tango: We're almost out of gas.
Gabriel Cash: What's the good news?
Ray Tango: We're ALMOST out of gas.

Gabriel Cash: You know, it's a free country, Tango.
Ray Tango: Yeah.
Gabriel Cash: And people are free to do whatever they want.
Ray Tango: So?
Gabriel Cash: Well, your sister is very, very free.
Ray Tango: I'm going to kill you.

[Looking at a picture of Ray Tango in the paper]
Gabriel Cash: Well, if it isn't Armani with a badge.

Any fans?

I really like this movie as well. I've passed on buying it a few times, as I always see it with the carboard covers I don't like...but now that I see it here...I think I'll just break down and buy it.

I really liked this movie back when it first came out...Not so much anymore though.

The pairing was great. Stallone said that he wants to reunite with Russell for a sequel.

Huge fan of the original and finally pulled the trigger and bought the Blu-Ray a few months back.

It's bad, but good. I love it.
