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.
要素过多 但看得并不累 甚至有种层层悬疑破解的快感
这个开头非常刺激，排练演出的一周在时间上也非常紧凑。但实际上这个内容又并不是全片的重点，也插入了很多这一周之外的内容，主角对细节的执着并不是那么有力，反而像自我感动。整体强度和信息密度都低于过去的索金作品，更多的还是致敬电视前辈的意义吧。
一个不会吸引广泛观众群的题材。就靠Sorkin的节奏和角色性格展示了。3.7星。
任何小事都是经不起放大的，否则就是满盘皆输。
你可以永远相信索金的剧本。Nicole演的太好了
唱歌的巴登叔♪( ´▽｀)嘿嘿还挺好听的。绝妙的西班牙口音爱死我了！
Nicole Kidman职业生涯中的一次高光时刻，如果她凭此摘得2022年、个人的第二个小金人也是实至名归。好莱坞的强大就在于当故事并非那么生动有力时，无论是制作还是演职人员，总会有一处超水平发挥来拔高整部作品。
2021年12月22日观看。妮可感觉变样了。
索金重回《社交网络》级别的编剧水平，可惜导演功力还是有限，仍差一口气。剧本太好了，太好了。妮可与哈维尔都贡献了生涯前三级别的表演，真棒啊！
带着了解旧好莱坞演员露西尔.鲍尔为人的低期待来看至少是符合预期的，人物性格和形象抓实了，除此之外就是唇枪舌战式的一锅乱炖了。
万万没想到这是艾伦索金的剧本，又是把社会议题装在一个箩筐里，想要说很多，职业歧视，种族歧视，共产主义，保守主义，女性主义，cbs作为传统媒体，都不愿意把怀孕的桥段放在情景喜剧中，怕引起观众对性的联想，即使女主已经真实怀孕，甚至不愿意让女主现实中的古巴裔丈夫在剧中饰演她的丈夫，因为他们预计观众更喜欢女主嫁给真正的美国人，传统的问题还是用传统的方式解决，今年奥斯卡不知为何，都喜欢向过去的影视致敬，但光顾着zz正确，没顾及到观赏性的问题，相当无趣
有两年没有认真看奥斯卡入围影片了 感觉疫情后啥都没兴趣 但又觉得少了点什么 选了一部看吧 又觉得有点太刻意了内容 让我觉得有点浪费时间
翻来覆去看了好一阵也几乎看不出来这是妮可，呵呵。至于剧情本身嘛，呃，老太太的裹脚布，呵呵。不过，自带字幕倒是省事了
看索金的作品实在是累，台词的密度和内容，不仅对观众，相信对演员都是极大的挑战。一部传记带出了政治、性别、种族、婚姻等各种问题，实难消化。
索然无味，现在奥斯卡表演奖已经撞成这样了吗……刚看完塔米费夫妻俩的电视台故事，又要看里卡多夫妻俩的电视台故事，天天看真人传记片，我吐了呀。而且还都把演员特效化妆得怪怪的（还是妮可是填硅胶填的？？脸僵得跟蜡像似的，吓人），影帝影后是cosplay大赛？？打乱时间线来回闪回，拎出传主最drama的三个事件（党员身份传闻、孕期拍戏应急处理、男方出轨），但艾伦索金还是那个问题，台词太过稠密乏味，他自编自导的观赏性就更弱了，累的时候是真不想看这样片子
在当今流行的女权或者说女性主义里，相当多的作品是以一种男女对立甚至是男性犯罪的角度来描绘的。鲍尔有才又有勇，尤其是在丈夫帮她解决“共产主义分子”身份时，她还是冷静克制的直面丈夫，告诉他自己发现了他出轨的事实。在那个年代里，女性的能力无法得到完全展现，就如同她改的未播出剧情，但在婚姻中，决不妥协。
没那么好，虽然内容装的满满，有想法，却感受不到才华。
索金的剧本也就是废话多了点，重心有点涣散，但实际上真的很有代入感。流媒体播放量已经说明一切，吊打倒数炸弹。
不要把爱情和婚姻当事业，不要把爱情和婚姻当事业，不要把爱情和婚姻当事业。
大量的对白来去填充故事但剧本本身真的太繁琐了，演员很用力但依然掩盖不了剧本的繁重。
