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.
1、电影涉猎的内容很多，揭露政治的肮脏，批判公权的妄为，鞭笞法律的软弱，愤怒新闻舆情的操弄与逐利，痛斥乌合之众的道德盲目，痛心种姓歧视的痼疾贻祸社会正义公平。2、电影手法简单粗陋，但因为粗暴简陋反倒能直抒胸臆，直击灵魂，润物无声诚然很高级，但对于一部有社会政治启蒙意义的电影并不一定是好的选择。3、在电影里你可以观察到印度社会贫富不均、种姓歧视、医疗落后、城建破败等落后的场景，但你也能感受到印度民间社会的生命顽强的元气，这个元气就是受现代文明熏染的个人生命尊严的启蒙已扎根于中下层社会，这就是印度的希望根本，而相比之下，我们则要汗颜羞愧。
我钦佩于他们这样大胆全面的反思 钦佩于他们对不说不的勇气 也敬佩于对真理的深刻探讨
再则就是我本身对印度的腐败、封建、奴役和阶级矛盾有自己的成见，所以，对这样一个国家能够形成个整体呼吁正义，民众良心万众一心，政府担当，司法公正就没有信心，所以，无论怎么演绎，都很难在我心中建立反转，因为假，反倒是如果将看似邪恶、冷血的人反转成嫉恶如仇，大概才有可能反到我一下下。
脱开电影说一句题外话，如果毕志飞还想继续拍摄多主角电影，可以来这部电影里面取经。
1.议程设置是如何一步步遮蔽、修改真相的
里面那个警官演的太好了吧…影片最后那几分钟有点多余…
一波三折，不断反转，剧情有些复杂，涉及很多案子，似乎还有下一部
影片将主线故事讲得过于复杂，进入太慢，剪辑拖沓，完全可以用120分钟处理得舒舒服服，非要加一堆扉页，画蛇添足。
又一神片，呵呵。
四星全给题材 如果不是题材 真的没办法给一部2个多小时的MV这么多星……
借用台词:sir 本邦的八千万人口，由你决定，他们何时该向你扔石头，何时该为你鼓掌，可以借此掩盖直升机和采矿的勾当。
另外国内影视作品的局限之一是只能说环境是好的，坏的是某个中层，以至于对社会话题无法有深刻的讨论，只能说这特例的特殊性，没有延伸的讨论和反思的空间，不过这就是想要的盛世
虽然冗长又有许多逻辑硬伤，但反转写得还不错，就是最后两位主角的身份揭秘太快太乱，完全可以剪掉前边很多重复的慢镜头来充实这部分，可以看得出主创的爱国心，印度电影开始走出自己的道路了，恭喜

作为退学博士，
7，也许很多人认为这种题材“像”某些高级的电影，只是这只是善意的误会。故事很悬浮，其中的法庭戏，如果不是编剧的经验不足就只能说明印度的法治真的太差了。警察杀人的铺垫不足导致前面不足以代入，还有莫名其妙的慢镜头，除了律师很多人都在讲显而易见的情绪，全员降智（包括控方律师）。我理解都是为了反转，最后的一小时确实亮眼，虽然全部从律师嘴里说出来不符合电影语言，但实现的情绪效果（正如角色说的，点燃观众的情绪，人们就变成了信徒）还是不错的。
韩国以及印度的电影，为何敢于这么拍出黑暗，国内连拍都不敢吧，敢拍的导演演员肯定直接被封杀，几乎不可能过审，都让国民活在童话之中，感谢韩国印度拍的这种电影，让我们看清楚人性
印度正在发生深刻的变化，此片加上上周迎来的第一位底层女总统！
3.5。前80分钟是非常普通的印度电影，配乐紧凑到吵得慌，即使刚开庭律师的辩护词也不过是老生常谈的“程序正义”和“实体正义”，以为这片子也就止步到这里。直到后50分钟真相层层浮出水面，先是给我们这些“凡事有消息就热衷发帖、被操纵产生某种可以利用的情绪的网民”一记大耳光，然后再抛出一个问题“媒体的存在是为了报道真相，还是媒体所说的才是真相？”。再之后掀开表面引导向更深的真相，说到底一切问题都与ZZ有关，“体制在口人”、“让提出问题的人沉默、给讨论的人戴上手铐”。世风日下无新鲜事，13亿的印度或15亿的..面对的问题实则都差不多。最后几幕被害的女教授和对学生说“每个人都有慷慨发表意见的权利，但是你有勇气付诸实践吗？”。现实是，我们大多数都是那场大学会议上想伸手表赞同但又放下手的、沉默的人。
戏剧性拉满，他们已经不满足于揭露和批判高犯罪率的现实，开始将矛头对准玩弄权术的政客和社会制度。虽然改变很缓慢，但这是个有希望的国家。
