As the first season of Tulsa King rolls on, we thought we'd take a look at some other Sylvester Stallone content that involved him being in and/or leaving prison. After some consideration, we decided to pit Lock Up against Tango & Cash, two 1989 movies that don't rank highly in Stallone's filmography. In the end, this comparison got a little fiery, to an extent these movies really don't deserve.
Warning: We spoil both Lock Up and Tango & Cash in this episode. If you haven't seen them yet... well, you're not missing much.
