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.
有点俗……而且歌的确不是特别好……但还是被艾滋的死亡阴影和写作者的痛苦戳到了……虽然这两者也不新吧
这几年我唯一能欣赏的歌舞剧只有lalaland。
但也说了凡事尽力而为
今年最喜欢了。我也要三十了，觉得非常relate，好几首歌唱得泪流满面，也觉得好像tick tick时间不够了，但好像生活里的各方面都还没进入正轨，可不可以让一切停下，可不可以在不失去的情况下就能得到。本来看音乐剧不多，也不知道Larson的故事，听完他的人生觉得命运过于唏嘘了。电影真的很完好地把他和每个人的遗憾梦想坚持展现出来，不上院线有点可惜。ps：why does it take a disaster for things to change? 再ps：奶一口加菲冲奥要成功鸭
其实能感受到创作表达欲的喷涌，不知道导演是不是也借男主之口说得那段表达自己的观点。串讲故事的手法在近些年的电影里还是算新奇的，所以看的时候觉得信息量很大。但是也如一位豆友所说，全片都在情绪高点没有启程转折，有点难入戏。然后我对音乐剧的欣赏能力也比较有限吧，歌声穿耳过，挺难留下什么深刻印象的。
而加菲所有关于内心戏的舞台独白段落，像是在突破第四面墙与观众对话，却让整个片更像舞台剧，也让它比看上去更适合剧院而不是做成电影。
噢，还有一句台词得送给我自己。
在分手期间看这样的片子真的爆哭 只是这位贵人在《使女的故事》中饰演一个反派让我频频出戏🤣 希望大家都可以get through break up
整部片子相当浮躁，剧情浮躁，表演浮躁，连歌曲都浮躁。难道真正焦虑的是编剧？没剧情就算了，主要是配乐为什么会那么吵，还好后半小时安静了一小会儿，难道是我老了。3.6
未必是最好的影片，却是当下最难得，最契合个人情绪状态的电影。同片中的主人公一样，在某项事业上投入了数年的时间精力，却没有得到任何回报，而身边所有美好的一切也一点点从自己生命中逝去。到底是再投入数年时间，还是退出这个行业另谋出路呢？我的人生又还有几个年头允许自己这么去挥霍消磨呢？
歌都太好听了吧。崭新。从头到尾都是高强度、快节奏的musical和电影的深度融合，这也体现出电影这种艺术形式的延展性和包容性。一个完全靠激情驱动的剧作天才在几天内的生活切片，永葆赤子之心的单纯和赤诚，就连自己的死亡都那么富有戏剧性。当然艺术家自大妄为的臭脾气也挺让人讨厌的就是了。
不亏以前是一对儿，相隔5年，加菲甩出一部与前女友在2016奥斯卡风光无限的《LA LA LAND》同样高口碑的音乐剧！巧了，两部在豆瓣同样8.4，连片名也都是AAB格式。
看到片尾那些乔纳森当年的片段 才发现加菲是真的好像他 导演为同志角色平添的颜色很闪耀 那竟是真正打动我的部分
电影剧情就是套路励志片嘛，歌曲一般吧，算不上多好听。
正儿八经音乐剧电影，rent作者jonnason larson自传改编，LMM还是厉害呢，舞台和情景交叉出现，戏剧感和音乐性配合得很好，我喜欢的音乐剧电影。另，音乐非常好听，最近榜单真的太难听~~~还好每年总有ost洗耳朵。
创作者大概是最不能平衡工作和生活的吧。整个人好像分裂成两个，一个还在惯性关心着亲友，一个已经游离出去在想怎么把这个素材好好用起来。又焦虑又冷漠。但是没办法，对于有天赋的人来说，没有什么比创作更重要。最极致的痛苦和甜蜜都因创作产生。唯一美中不足的是加菲唱的一般。/《Superbia》那段几个歌手应该是专业的，Sextet Montage那段那个卷发女生唱得好好！另外力荐《Rent》好吗，有机会看的都去看！
以为是故事，其实是哲学，以为是哲学，其实是求索以为是求索，其实是人生指南
前女友拍了爱乐之城，加菲哥是想着不甘人后也来这么一部吗？可惜他音乐感不太好的样子，反倒觉得凡妮莎出彩。
林聚聚导演的这部《倒数时刻》，描写的就是拉森创作《傲慢》最后一首歌的几天时间里的故事。这首歌的创作几乎将拉森折磨疯了。
滴答滴答倒数，拉森的三十岁来得太早，而他的三十六岁永远没有到来，林聚聚在音乐剧方面的才华让另一位天才的坎坷之路串接着倒数时刻的演出美妙地呈现出来，当然要算上加菲无可挑剔的表演，八年熬出的傲慢进不了百老汇，那就潜心创作下一部剧。
