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.
有些电影的社会意义早已大于了影片本身。
美国应该去印度追究人权反人类罪，不分青红皂白的打老百姓
不明白为何这种题材还要唱歌跳舞，每次男主出现的时候，后面的配乐总觉得在哪个好莱坞大片里出现过。
毫无疑问，印度至今存在着非常严重的性别歧视和种族歧视，甚至可以在这里用一个“最”字。但印度社会允许质疑的声音发出来，也允许挑战这些不公的个人英雄主义的存在，还允许人们揭开旧伤疤看一看它究竟长好了没有……这就是他们的希望所在！
7.8 印度人民神话，律政英雄形象抚慰暴政。相当细腻地刻画，困难的反转的幅度不是很大。再次申明影视化的回忆的残缺性和不真实，拱卫对官方说法的不够真实的批判。
极力追求结案率会造成天大的冤案，不论是哪一种形式的案件，这是法律人的大忌。
你可以有一百种理由嫌弃印度，唯独印度电影不行！我们在印度电影中看到了人生的深度，也看到了这个国家的贫穷与残酷，但总有那么一丝光温暖着人心，这可能就是印度电影最大的魅力。
4星，题材不错，虽说是30年前的事件，但仍然值得致敬， 就是影片时间有点太长了，当电视剧看了。
看的时候多次不明白自己为什么要看，一度以为是90年代香港cult片监狱风云。
当你觉得这个世界有大量的不正义，你也要记得它有一个对立的概念叫“正义”。如果世界上没有正义，那你说的不正义就毫无意义，而正是我们相信这个世界上有正义，所以才会不断地去追寻正义。（by 罗翔）
那些警察的邪恶和对底层人民的凶狠，让人无法直视。
最终小鱼干倒了大鳄。
真人真事哎，人家印度有人权律师哎，人家人权律师能办几万个案子哎，人家人权律师办的案子梦拍成电影哎，人家电影拍出来还能过审、还能在海外播出哎！人家法院系统还真的能监督国家暴力机关哎！人家警察系统里还有独具良心的自上而下的独立调查机制哎！而且真的能保证独立哎！人家印度这个司法体系也太work了吧！
虽然脸谱化严重，但谁又能拒绝以一己之力对抗强权的爱装逼正义大侠呢？（个人能当英雄，主要还是因为能找到强权的上一级来制约，不然很有可能连只是立个案都没机会）适合杀时间，能杀快三个小时…当律师指名找本赞同私刑的警长开始查案才开始真正好看起来
“我不是天生的律师，我只是一个人。假设一个被蛇咬的受害者来到你身边，为生活而挣扎，如果他没有钱，你会拒绝他吗？” 良心之行。
十几年的真实案件改编。。。
电影中睿智犀利正义必胜。。。
真相大概从警察说出犯人越狱的时候就知道了，但是丝毫不影响观看。
但真实事件改编真的非常有力量
塑料般廉价的印度贫民电影。但，他们至少还可以游行示威，还有不畏权势不担心失去执照的死磕律师。律师全程面瘫减分。
