Movie
Review
by Todd Niziol
Co-Editor
This Christinas
season Americans were
treated to a series of
excellent movies. One
of the best was Tango
and Cash. Starring
Sylvester Stallone and
Kurt Russell as L.A.'s
two best cops, Tango
and Cash is a roller
coaster of thrills.
Stallone shows rare
form in his role as a
well dressed and
sophisticated officer.
Not only does he look
respectable, but he
shocks the audience
with his wit and
charm. Kurt Russell
plays the rough and
tumble city officer
who breaks all the
rules, but always gets
results.
The movie revolves
around a drug dealer's
revenge on the two
police officers who
are ruining his
business. Found
guilty of false
charges, Tango and
Cash are sent to a
prison where they
battle criminals and
corrupt guards. After
escaping, Tango and
Cash go about finding
the drug lord and end
the movie in a finale
of guns, knives,
fights, explosions,
blood, etc. The
typical "Rambo” style
ending.
The movie was both
exciting and humorous.
Stallone and Russell
work well together and
some scenes are
incredibly funny. The
action and pace never
slow down, making it a
surprise hit. My only
complaint is that the
drug dealer was poorly
protrayed. This
criminal genius sits
through the whole
movie playing with his
pet rats. Other than
that, it was one of
the winter season’s
better movies.
