UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
怎么破的房子还进来偷东西？原来是同行做了记号想捡漏。张颂文这欧式宽双眼皮割得太假了。这地方一看就是重庆。这个尤大成好傻逼。我发现窦骁在电影里都要露点的，因为身材好。不报警，直接黑客公放，是怕有腐败？作为一个退休的身体不好的前警察，为什么之前不报警，让自己的警察朋友查案，要自己一个人去找？
❶中间要挟对方人质互捅那地方变成搞笑片我有点跟不上了。
还不错，整体看得出是有诚意想好好讲故事的，就是步子迈的有点大，最后阳光下没必要，也可能不是现实。朱珠太美了！
还不错。几个演员都挺好的。主题我还是很喜欢的。
为了反转而反转，情绪与节奏又都是平的，没有递进，让人疲惫。缺乏现实基础、逻辑有伤，无法带入的不真实，让人困乏。导演编剧的能力差的太多，可惜了几个好演员，在及格的边缘，冲着几个人的表演勉强给及格吧。
还有莉莉，她的酒窝很漂亮，和梅婷一样吧 我很喜欢她笑。这里，她对外卖小哥倒是很用心，发现不对劲就让他走，然后就是老范。
还不错。几个演员都挺好的。主题我还是很喜欢的。
在群里抢到优惠券 看的点映。张颂文太太太帅了!!!!!!!!!!!😻“谢谢你救了她”“是她救了我”果然好人有好报
2.0 / 几乎每一帧都看出了“我想与众不同我想技惊四座”的野心，就是真的很无趣。里面的黑色幽默也很无趣。一些青年导演真的不必“为了做点什么而做点什么”。
而在一个已经定型了的、并且极度受限的创作圈内，出现了一部创新之作时。我们却对其给予了巨大的艺术批评。
预期以上，节奏感很好。结尾感觉可以更有意思一点。
如果结尾不强行HE还能多给一星。最近对所有“宏大叙事”感到生理心理双重不适，包括各种派别、方向的宏大叙事。这种以结构精巧为特色的小制作电影看起来不累。如果Kimi还在，外卖员的角色很适合kimi来演。
这个外卖员一出来，我说这人好像窦骁，结果发现就是窦骁。
评分「8.0」
作为悬疑剧还算是合格的，但感觉后面有点滥用升格了。
小惊喜，喜剧搭配悬疑还带着点惊悚的杂糅片，没什么大bug，整体尚能及格。
第一次被赠票看点映场。反转一个接一个，音乐氛围也烘托的恰到好处，最终的结局其实前面也有暗示，有种欧亨利式结尾的感觉。中间有笑点，也有被触动的点。演员们发挥也很出色，第一次看窦骁的作品，演得不错，是非常棒的电影。
而在一个已经定型了的、并且极度受限的创作圈内，出现了一部创新之作时。我们却对其给予了巨大的艺术批评。
楼下花园和筒子楼的构造以及营造的氛围，想起来，博尔赫斯，小径分岔的花园。
非常合格的类型片，最大的优点就是最后剧情没有失控闪崩。
