Episode description
Hey Cannon Cruisers fans! This week, we’re going back to 1989 with the action-comedyTango & Cash, starring Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell. Directed by Andrei Konchalovsky (and a few others), this one follows two rival LAPD cops who get framed for a crime they didn’t commit. To clear their names, they have to put their differences aside and take down the real villain.
We break down the film’s mix of action and comedy, the chemistry between Stallone and Russell, and the chaotic production history that somehow resulted in a movie that still works. From quirky character moments to over-the-top action, we get into what makesTango & Cash a cult favourite and how it stands out from other buddy cop films.
