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.
小清新、搞笑、惊悚、感动、热血，爱情、姐弟情、父子情、乡情，会觉得这种剧情就是硬凑，把太多吸引观众的点拼凑在一起，如果整体来看，就是支离破碎，但是如果单看每一个点，又都展现的还不错，甚至产生了情绪。韩国人拍社会现实很厉害，拍人际感情的戏也是特别在行，甚至有明显时代戏的感觉，如果是经历过那个时代的人，应该会有更多的情怀感受。
卷福这个形象似乎已经被固化成要演那种异于常人的天才，博士啊、侦探啊，这次的插画家在妻子去世后就完全归于平淡，激情全无，不如“模仿游戏”里的图灵在大时代背景下，来得更有波澜和起伏。
更会想当在这么一个政治正确的年代，对“扶妹魔”的戏谑
卷福出演怪异天才的履历又添一笔，想不到路易斯·韦恩这么多可爱有趣的画作背后竟然是如此悲惨的人生经历。中规中矩、平铺直叙的传记片，核心线索不太明朗让叙事有点偏流水账，好在一些超现实的运用给片子带来了一点别致与怪诞，另外4:3画幅+光影下的英伦田园风光如油画美不胜收，恍惚间想起《月升王国》。
韩国真的太会拍这种细腻感情下悲情又温情的故事了
艺术世家的插画大师韦恩，不擅理财，不擅俗世事务，兴趣极其广泛，活得天真自然激情勇敢羞怯深情。今年难得的好片。
本尼一定要活的健健康康的，我真的想看他演一辈子的戏。
一切，就甜甜地结束吧！！！爱吃糖，不吃刀～让我们向往甜美生活！
' You are a prism.Through which that beam of life refracts. ' ' You can run away from your family,Louis.You cannot run away from your grief.It trails you.Like a violent shadow. '
7分。爱猫人士的奇幻之旅，各种滤镜让电影美轮美奂，不少画面都迫于油画风格，维多利亚风看得人心醉。但可惜相比于画面，故事上就有些弱了，作为人物传记，故事并没有深入挖掘主角的气质，总觉得太过肤浅了。感觉导演是希望拍出那种疏离感和孤独感，但过于明亮的气氛色彩让他的努力有些落空了。本尼的表演只能算一般，设置上有点像爱迪生或者图灵的味道，这一类有缺陷的天才角色他演的有些太多了吧？？
爸爸和儿子都不要再恨自己了
艺术家观察，体验，转换。让痛苦与美得以结合，就像柔美的阳光下被病痛折磨的Emily一样，迸发出强烈的生命之美。
本尼是天才型的演员。电影的服化布景精致用心，但最打动我的是最后那些画。
剧情多少有点流水账。现实真是令人难过，希望他们曾经拥有很多很多无与伦比的快乐吧
韦恩世界的猫猫实在太有感染力了，影片结束了放映的猫猫作品，值得欣赏一番🌝
晚安呀，世界！
除了一点反转，整体来说很平庸，有点浪费了这个题材
这电影跟主人公一样思路混乱。但是猫很多，忍了
穷困山村有志青年凭借数学天份走出山村的故事。本片距离「优秀」的几处不足：少年过于轻易取得的胜利，虽然扣题并突出了戏剧性，但消减了可信度并降低了感染力；剧本对个人心结、家庭悲剧和村民困境等几条线索的排布主次不清；韩影惯常的表演方式对于励志传记片来说未免过于浮夸和廉价。
前半段讲爱情，后半段讲画猫，剧情上是因果关系，然而最核心的情感还是路易斯的孤独，他说在越难过的时候画就越漂亮，电影里所呈现的人物的挣扎与画作的五彩斑斓形成强烈对比，卷福演这种还蛮得心应手的，就是剧本停留在表面的痛苦上了，原生家庭这里可以深度挖掘，与那短暂的婚姻相比，大叫爸爸妈妈的男孩才是恐惧精神来源。
