So, with a mediocre script and subpar acting, Tango & Cash could very well be a train wreck of a film (like any Seagal or Van Damme flick). It avoids this though, by being so tongue-in-cheek. Whether or not this is intentional can be debated. I only know that I can't help but watch this film every time it comes on! So if you're looking for big, dumb fun, this is the flick for you!

My Opinion: This movie is a ton of fun. At first glance it may not seem like much, but when you watch it, it pulls you in and takes over. Sure it's a bit silly at times, but it has more depth than other movies of this type. There is a full blown plot and a moral to the story. The action is good, and Griffith is great. It's one of those guilty pleasures movies that you are embarrassed to admit that you like. It's very easy and fun to watch making it one that you will watch more than once. DVD Quality: Widescreen anamorphic, trailer, and making of documentary make this a nice little DVD What You Should Do: Buy it. If you are a SciFi fan you need this one. The price couldn't be better!
David Andrews (Graveyard Shift, Hannibal, Apollo 13) stars as Sam Treadwell, as somewhat well to do individual in the post apocalyptic near future. He prefers the company of a highly sophisticated pleasure bot, a model called Cherry 2000, to that of the messy entanglements of a relationship with a woman. Only problem is, during a romantic interlude, his Cherry 2000 get water in her system and suffers a complete internal meltdown. Removing the personality chip which contains voice patterns, mannerisms, etc., he sets out to find a replacement, which is easier said than done, as that model is nearly impossible to come by, and highly coveted. He gets a tip that there is a whole warehouse of the Cherry 2000 model in a warehouse, problem is the warehouse is located in wastelands, a highly restrictive and dangerous area. Sam decides to hire a tracker to go and retrieve him a new unit, and meets with Edith E. Johnson, played by Melanie Griffith. So Sam and Edith set off in her souped up Ford Mustang, into the wastelands. After a skirmish or two, they encounter one of the more feared groups of the wastelands, led by Lester, played by Tim Thomerson (Trancers, Who's Harry Crumb, Air America). Lester and his gang live what I would call a little suburb of the desert called Sky Ranch, and detest trackers. Why they hate trackers, I don't know, as it's never explained, but they do, so I went with it. Avoiding capture and also avoiding getting blown up, Sam and Edith eventually meet up with Six Fingered Jake, played by Ben Johnson, veteran actor of more western movies than I care to mention, and winner of an academy award for his role in The Last Picture Show (1971). He's a semi-retired tracker who provides a safe haven for Sam and Edith. After a short rest, the two start out again, but get waylaid by Lester and his gang, and Sam ends up getting kidnapped. Sam escapes from Lester, causing much damage to Sky Ranch, and Lester and his cronies pursue. Sam and Edith finally come to where the Cherry 2000 units are, with Lester and Co. in hot pursuit. Oh yeah, there's a sort of love interest between Sam and Edith that develops and is kind of important around the end of the movie. A decent movie, but a couple glaring inconsistencies in the continuity. The biggest one I can remember is when Lester and his gang are chasing Sam and Edith through the desert, following in a Jeep and a small truck. They stop at some point, open the back of the truck, and four ATVs pull out of the truck. In the next scene, we see the jeep and about 10 to 15 ATVs. Unless that was some kind of magical truck with a transdimensional wormhole in the back, I have no idea where all the other ATVs came from. And the scene with the car hanging from the giant magnet attached to the crane...if one of Lesters men was operating the crane, why did he keep moving the crane? Lesters men were trying to shoot at the car hanging from the crane, but were unable to get a bead on it due to it kept moving...just made no sense. As for extra features, there is a 'Making of...' documentary (cough, cough) if you can call it that. It's like six minutes long, 2 minutes of which is the trailer, and looks like a bad high school production. There is also a trailer for the movie. Watching the trailer, I noticed a few scenes not in the movie. One scene is where Lester shoots a woman in the head, and her body goes flying backwards into a pool of water. In the actual movie, we see Lester fire his gun in the direction of the woman who is off screen, and that's it. Also, in the trailer there is a scene where Edith is changing in another room, and comes out with her shirt unbuttoned, allowing us to see part of her chest (not all) in a view where she's facing the camera. In the movie, we get more of a side view and a much more limited view. Since this movie is rated PG-13, I am assuming that these two scenes probably got nixed from the movie to avoid an R rating, but nice to see they were put into the trailer.

In spite of it all, this movie manages to transcind itself and become funny. The fight sequences are a riot, and the special effects are as good for laughs as anything "Dark Shadows" or the original "Star Trek" ever produced. And all in all, the storyline isn't any worse than that of "Jurassic Park" or "Star Wars"; the biggest failing is the low budget and too much reliance on fight scenes to carry the action. If you're looking for a film to pass the time or entertain friends, this one will do the trick ... especially for fans of the "Soap Opera Game" or Mystery Science Theater watchers who want to see the original movie uncut.
Boring - Unbearable - Laughable - Lousy Stupid - Horrible - Insipid - Terrible I could go on with such descriptions but you probably get the point. I wouldn't watch this film voluntarily but I may make my kids watch it the next time I need to punish them. ... Read more | |

1987. TWE. 92 MINS. Rated R for Language and Some Strong Horror/Action Violence.
Having said that, though, it does star Bruce Campbell (star of the Evil Dead trilogy) as the hero and just about any movie starring BC is worth watching at least once. There's nothing terribly exciting about his performance here, but... it's Bruce Campbell. It should also be said that this DVD comes with some excellent extras, considering that it's such a low-budget, relatively unknown, cult film. With many DVDs of this genre, you're lucky if you have any special features at all. Deleted scenes, trailers, commentary, etc. A very nice surprise.
Overall A fun movie if you don't expect too much out of it. The video is somewhat disappointing but the audio is nice. The extras are definitely the best thing about this DVD. ... Read more | |
