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.
前期構圖和後期明顯指向性，男人無論身份階級外在表現，到最後暴露本質都特麼一個揍性，套娃式生育場面， 可以成為女性題材恐男反殺片另類邪典代表了
原译名《们》，改成《男人》之后显然更合适，A24从来没让我失望，小作坊类型精品。男人们入侵她的视野、房屋、生活、思想，不允许反抗的附属品，就算说是蹭女权热度也得夸一下A24想转型的努力咯
视觉美学是挺厉害的，厌男倒也是刻画到了极致，但挺流于形式和表面的。
概念牛逼，视听窜稀/灯光太刻意，打还是不打都在抢夺观众的注意力/画面太脏，构图运镜大失败，剪辑毫无逻辑/单镜头的美反而会让电影变丑，这部电影是范例/声音太过于傻缺，和劣质模仿表现主义的摄影一同构成a24电影中的土逼///导演是那个拍《机械姬》的，那也倒不是很惊奇。这就类似于那种固有概念理工男类型的电影/最后的概念太惊艳了尤其是那个孕妇的出场一下子收束了整个立意——直接告诉你这基本不是什么女性主义（网上有很多人无端联想，自我意淫）。因此它剪辑虽然没啥美学或者叙事的逻辑，但是它剧作上，想法上还是有的，所以加两星（甚至单从概念上来看，这已经是我今年目前看过最有意思的创意了）。
81/100。加兰的镜头一直都好美啊，绿色杂乱的森林，绿草中破旧的房屋，暗红色调的房间，都让我非常喜欢。结尾的那场戏绝对是我今年印象最深的戏份之一。节奏不可避免地因为恐怖场景而有些杂乱，但控制得也挺不错了。用千人一面的男人来讽刺男权，我觉得是很有新意也很有力度的一种讽刺方法。另，加兰的恐怖从没让我失望过。
MEN，男性糟粕大赏。男性的确应该看看，是什么令人恐惧或厌恶。最后的套娃不恐怖，但有点意思。不知道爱是什么，但绝不应该是束缚和伤害。
导演编剧，性别男。导过机械姬和湮灭。
什么狗屁电影浪费老子的时间，实在片慌才看的，看了别人说什么最后十分钟封神，我只想想呵呵，这部电影唯一拍的好的地方可能就是静物吧，自然风光啥的，除此之外，潜台词就是男人都是垃圾，男人没有好的，女人怀孕生育的痛苦都是男人附加的，excuse me?这种电影和那种仇女电影有什么不同吗？说了就是电影拍的是隐喻，烂片就是烂片。还有我觉得女主丈夫的死，女主确实有些责任。
掉落的苹果 漫长的隧道回声
这部片和拉斯冯提尔的《忧郁》有异曲同工之妙。男性生育套娃和分裂开的左手引起严重生理不适。
怎么说呢，是那种好到让你心生厌恶，而心生厌恶恰恰证明了这部电影成功之处的作品。
真是妙啊。伤痕裸男——女性生育伤害，面具男——厌女男权，神父——劝妓从良道貌岸然的宗教，房东——暴力解决家庭纠纷的男人。隐喻很明显，没有直接恐怖，却让人不寒而栗，心有戚戚
有一丢丢莫名其妙的结尾，我还希望再知道一点，到底是这个女的疯了，太内疚，还是咋滴。讲真大屏幕上生孩子就这么整真的没事吗？看着多少有点。。。反正啊是每个人都看得了
取景和镜头都极具美感，心魔的艺术化表现新颖而巧妙，你能想到的一切套路这部电影都不会出现，就是前1小时节奏可以再抓一抓，几个男性角色略单薄。裂开的手太经典，看完冲动点了鸡爪外卖。
被影片的真实和残酷震撼到了，暗喻做得非常好，是一部女权觉醒的表主权影片，很不错
结尾可谓经典了，看看当长长眼界呗。意识流助于催眠，先睡为敬。
前二十分钟吓趴了，每当这种时候就想抓几个胆子小的女性朋友跟我一起看。。。
是创伤而非恐怖 通过女生的一系列对抗重构了丈夫的死亡 不同的男性形象分别代表着控制 辱骂 暴力 伪善 而在一层层罪恶中最终分娩出已经死去的丈夫
画面非常美，氛围非常惊悚
