The story centers on two rival Los Angeles policemen, dapper, straitlaced Raymond "Ray" Tango (Stallone), and aggressive, rough-around-the-edges Gabriel "Gabe" Cash (Russell), and their attempts to outdo each other. But when an arch-enemy of theirs, drug lord Yves Perret (Palance), decides to even the score and gets them framed for murder, Tango and Cash suddenly find themselves among the same prisoners they had put away themselves. It doesn't take long before they realize they're going to have to put aside their differences and work together in order to get even with Perret and clear their names, even if it ends up killing them.

Tango and Cash decide to shoot him on the knees simultaneously at the count of three, but when they get to "three" they shoot Perret [[BoomHeadshot dead center in the forehead]] ([[ImprobableAimingSkills very tight double-tap, too]]).

Cash is correct that they are involved, but that is because they are lackeys to [[BigBad Perret]].

* ComplexityAddiction: Perret's plan is absurdly complicated and it's lampshaded as such by the other crime lords that hear it when he proposes it. Perret's response is that it's needed to make sure that Tango and Cash don't end up becoming martyrs amongst the other cops. The other crime lords end up agreeing as a result for the moment. When the titular duo manages to escape prison the crime lords tell Perret that they believe his plan didn't work and are going to send assassins to find them, and Perret belts out a borderline-whiny BigNo in response that shuts them up and they never do it.
