They're both ridiculous buddy cop team-up movies from the 1980s and 1990s, but of very different star caliber and budget. Tango & Cash (1989) saw Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell join forces as two LAPD super cops who are framed by Jack Palance's crime boss, who has a weird thing for mice and CCTV monitors. Showdown in Little Tokyo (1991) sees post-Rocky IV Dolph Lundgren team up with Brandon Lee in one of his first film roles as two...cops who, uh, well, there's a story we're pretty sure.
