line is a wise-ass quip, that I have been using in my day-to-day for way too long to mention. Like I said earlier, this is just a spectacular action flick that I think most people will love, and the sensationalism of a reality game show of people hunting other people I feel is semi-relevant to today. It appears to be a rental on Apple TV for four bucks so well worth it if you are looking for a ’80s Arnold flick you have not seen. Okay, the very, very last thing. Christopher Reeve was originally cast in the Arnold role. Kind of insane and would have been a completely different flick. And like my previous Dragnet column, this also has a Paula Abdul connection. She choreographed all the dancing of the ladies on the game show. Just crazy. Wait! Have You Not Seen... Tango & Cash? October 14, 2022 Back again with another review of a flick I think you need to see. This one came to me from a conversation with Larry and Mark Espinosa. Mark was suggesting I knock out some of the all-time greats, such as Caddyshack and Ghostbusters . I plan on getting to them. The films that nothing I would say about them would be new, and honestly, if you have not seen those flicks, just send me a message explaining yourself. And no, I will not accept that reason. But during that conversation, somehow Kurt Russell came up, and I started thinking. Kurt Russell is Hollywood royalty, but what flick did you maybe miss? Tombstone, Escape from New York, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China, Overboard, Backdraft, Stargate. Not many people would have missed them, but I have two for you. This is the first one. Two hot-shot Los Angeles Police officers are, essentially, rivals. Gabriel Cash is played by Kurt Russell, and Raymond Tango is played by Sylvester Stallone. They are both Lieutenants and pretty much just bust drug deal ers in their areas of Los Angeles. One is the Westside and one is the Eastside and both essentially are vying for the best in LA. They eventually make the biggest bust of their collective careers and that just so happens to belong to Yves Perret, played by the insanely good Jack Palance. Yves has insane pull and gets the the two hot-shots framed for the murder of an FBI agent. And, even knowing they did not do it, they are found guilty and sent to prison. That is when this flick gets awesome. As the two go back and forth with digs and quips against one another, they realize they are in prison with a lot of bad dudes that they put in there. They need to get out Tango & Cash
