Editorial Reviews

Product Description
He's poison to crime. Sylvester Stallone portrays Cobra's Marion Cobretti, a cop with a style all his own and a knack for taking the blood-splattered jobs no one else dares to take. George P. Cosmatos (Tombstone) guides the whirlwind action as Cobretti confronts a crime spree that may be the work of a serial killer. Punches mix with punch lines in Tango & Cash, starring Stallone and Kurt Russell as rival Los Angeles cops who form a flinty partnership as they bust out of prison and go after the powerful drug czar who set them up. Co-stars include Jack Palance as the big-shot crimelord and, in her second film, Teri Hatcher.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2 action classics !, April 17, 2008

By	Florian Kuepfer (Switzerland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I had seen both movies dozens of times, but I love them so much I couldn't help but buy this special pack.
Cobra is an amazing classic action film that has everything a fan could wish for - a great villain, the idiotic police bureaucracy. Stallone was a superstar in the making at the time, and this movie certainly help to speed up the process.

Tango & Cash holds, in my opinion, a special place in the universe of old school action movie, for it is certainly the funniest. I stopped counting the great one-liners after 20 minutes as I kept on laughing. The story isn't especially original, however the lead actors are at the top of their game. Those two really seem to have had a lot of fun during the movie. You'll find this movie hugely entertaining.

I recommend this special pack to all action movies fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap thrills and old school action, July 10, 2009

By	Hugh Brown "J.Allen Brown" (Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A double sided disk, with basic menus a few old previews with no extra features. For collectors only.

Both movies are roughneck, about tough cops and crazy criminals.
somewhat barabaric, jokes that dont really cut it, action thats mostly just violent for the sake of being violent. Not exactly an adrenaline rush, more like a crash and burn mismatch with comic relief that just makes you scratch your head and stare at the ceiling.

Cobra is cool, Stallone is great at being the anti-hero or good guy with an edge but this type of stuff is pretty worn out ever since lethal weapon and the days of die hard. Its definetly old school and if your a fan of that then Cobra is a must have and a major milestone for Stallone.
If you like in your face action, thriling chase scenes and murder victims
this is where its at. 80s action was all about tough guys and hot chicks.
Well that is if you cant Bridgeete Neilson. This is definetly a gun glory.
Perhaps this movie is responsible for the cliched Act 3 of a horror or action movie wherein the good guy chases the bad guy into a steel mill and they slug it out. Classic.

Tango n Cash on the other hand is like a freebie thats tacked on, its somewhat interesting seeing Kurt Russel and Stallone team up but there 1 time romp is nothing more than a hayride over a hill. Its full antics and
misfortune. They try to play off each other but its obvious there a mismatch of acting styles. I feel a little bit dumber having watched it.
I think they tried to mimic the success of Lethal Weapon but failed. How can you have Stallone playing a ritzy and clever wallstreet tycoon that is also the number 1 cop in his city? Hes too clean cut and straight forward, and alot unlike Stallone other characters whove had shady pasts.
Its almost like Sacralidge when Tango says "Rambo sucks" compared to what may I ask? If this were a western it would be Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid, but worse, its just an awful team up. Oh and it has a very young Teri Hatcher as Stallone's sister. Imagine that. Stallone without the girl this time. Silly, stupid and uneventful. Avoid it.

Its this cheap for a reason,its old, everyones already seen it,some people own it,its probably available for free at the library, and theyve been shown on tv over a dozen times in the past 10 years. But go rent or borrow a copy of Cobra, watch it once if u havent already, and prepare for the next big release from Stallone, "the Expendables" 2010.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great combo!, June 18, 2009

By	G. Hunt "Just some dude" (WV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was originally just looking for Tango & Cash, but saw this double set that also has Cobra and said hey- why not! These are two movies I grew up watching on TV so they were must haves for my collection.

These are probably two of my favorite cheesy 80's action flicks. I don't care if these are Stallone's (and Russell's) worst movies ever, I love em!

Tango & Cash is just entertaining with all the wisecracking and gun blazing that goes on, and Stallone's Merc "lead sled" in Cobra is just awesome (too bad it gets wrecked and fubared like every other movie).

My one gripe is this-the double-sided DVD is not marked as to which side is which movie! So, that takes a little trial and error.
