The film looks like the sort of queasy fever dream that might be produced by sitting through an entire Orson Welles film festival while eating pepperoni pizzas.
Dave Kehr, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
Both men think that the best way to deliver the right to remain silent to the usual suspects is via a right hook.
Desmond Ryan, Philadelphia Inquirer
Rotten
Tango and Cash is a waste of talent and energy on all levels: unworthy of Konchalovsky, unworthy also of Stallone, Russell and every superior technical credit on the film.
Michael Wilmington, Los Angeles Times
Rotten
The ostensible humor here is of the macho one-liner variety, and much of it falls flat.
Henry Sheehan, Chicago Reader
