action, comedy, crime, thriller
Tango and Cash are two L.A. narcotics cops that go together like caviar and French fries. Dressed in three-piece suits and glasses, Tango is the suave policeman. In his $9 shirts and jeans, Cash is his salt-of-the-earth rival on the force. Each has spent his days and nights cracking down on drug dealers -- to the fury of crime boss Yves Perret. Perret and his gang frame the two cops and have them sent to prison. It turns out Tango and Cash don't get along any better behind bars than they did in the station house. They trade insults, and they protest having to shower together. But when the ruling underground goons of the penitentiary torture them, Tango and Cash join forces to overthrow the prison menace, and, in the process, escape. Once free, they pursue Perret and attempt to destroy his cartel for good. And, ruffling Tango's feathers, Cash also gets involved with Tango's sister, Kiki, an exotic dancer.
