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.
考究与平庸。前前后后都少有锐气十足的无限感，两个半小时的片长在雷老爷子手里头一次变成疲累感。再度不理解为什么短评里那么多夸gaga演得好的…我们可以这样断言，在类似的现实主义叙事中使用娱乐圈的非演员celebrity，绝大多数的情况下都会变成灾难。本片还真没有到灾难的程度——gaga老师确实有一手，但是在具体情节的从塑造到传达，都真是完全不行。举个例子，男主父子和解，几乎是女主一手促成的，但父亲并不卖她面子，无视了她付出的努力。我们可以说这就是全片悲剧的雏形和预兆，那女主在被无视的这一刻，情绪是什么？怎么想，怎么隐瞒自己怎么想？怎么应对？后续有什么余韵？不妨回忆一下何赛飞老师是怎样诠释被禁止戴孝的杨九红的，再想想，究竟什么程度的表演，才是「演得真好」。
三星
演员中Lady Gaga演得最好，杰瑞德莱托化妆化得连爹妈都不认了吧。
（6.0）嘎嘎演技大进步，尤其肢体动作表现力爆棚。问题还是我在明星那部时说的，面部肌肉掌控不够细腻，也就是微表情太贫乏了。天赋看来还是一般，这些年也没有长期表演训练打磨出来。不过靠着形体也能成就伟大演员的。整部影片拍得就那样吧，音乐的调配有点意思。意大利歌剧、莫扎特的德语歌剧、电子乐的交替演变，多少也对应了古驰家族的变迁。
放大私事的技巧-12/01/21 at AMC Garden State Plaza 16
确实是非常有质感的流水账，全程毫无波澜的平铺直叙，家族企业的历史本身就是暗流涌动的，但雷公在剧情节奏上并没有太多主观性的润色，使得表演在呈现上更多的只是工具性的作用，只是将「故事」又还原于故事本身的冗长结构，虽然整体上的影像风格依然是雷公所擅长的冷静克制，但应有的光芒还是被掩藏被遮拦。
表演大于剧本的作品，但在当下显得格外新鲜。碎片化的叙事似乎显得格外合身。家庭抓马不就是一个接一个的闹剧最终撕破了脸，可是要再回头梳理一条时间线，只剩下鸡毛蒜皮的争吵和破碎的碗碟。
流水账和史诗之间往往只有一条虚线。看得出雷公完全是抱着玩票的心态拍的，四平八稳无聊得拍完了整部电影，虽然后端开始观感逐渐变好，但是仍然不见用心创作的印记。但转念一想，这种卖力不讨好的题材，在现在或许只有雷公老马这一批见证过黄金时代的老导演才会选择拍吧
这是一坨什么玩意，这么丰富的故事，这么多大牌明星，拍成了如此寡淡无聊的模样，也是挺厉害的。
作为老雷的粉丝，这电影我是真破防了，还没异星灾变有意思（哦，第二季原来已经上了），提前预订年度十大烂片，真的没想到人物传记片居然能拍成这副德性，通篇无趣的流水账，戏剧冲突平淡，你都感觉不到他们在争家产，这已经不能叫海澜之家，叫破烂之家才对，再加上司机那副丑不拉几的面孔，我现在是在反思我是怎么忍了150分钟。换成马丁斯科塞斯来拍，人物对手戏至少不会这么无趣吧。
上一次看这么流水账的作品好像还是看中学生的语文考试作文。认真的。我真是没想到这部片子能拍成这样的水平，全程几乎没有高潮也根本没有任何值得称道的地方。滤镜让画面奇丑！一个讲时尚豪门恩怨情仇的作品却人人都这么土……难道这也是一种讥讽吗？
我嘎的文戏虽然烂得姑妈都被气复活了，但是床戏超级经验丰富和专业嘛！
拍的有点台湾8点档。其实雷公更适合拍LV家族是如何被现任LVMH的董事长用尽各种脏手段赶出LVMH集团。
这个片的卡司构成比历史本身更耐人寻味。鳖的表演做到了惺惺作态的同时又真情流露，阿尔帕西诺80岁的人了发起脾气来像个小孩般可爱，重点是莱托！莱托……演了个橡皮泥。
败家子狗血故事。lady Gaga演技还是不错的。
雷导想拍camp风的melodrama又没有100%commit。最后拍了个十分平庸又过长的四不像。
大概是个喜剧。极尽浮华骄奢愚昧的可能，才显露腐朽的人心和平庸的家族原本的模样。直到Tom Ford出场，我们终于等到新鲜的力量。老雷这“瞎搞”的配乐竟然离间出了一些趣味。Bartender行吧。
卡司挺强，题材也够有关注度，何况是这么一个全球有影响的品牌。不知是不是两位主演不够靓帅，还是编剧技巧有问题，抑或是主演的演技太low，反正这电影感觉挺一般，连床戏看着都假，让人觉得没啥兴趣。既是豪门恩怨，又有黑社会参与，何不换个路子拍呢？
Lady Gaga相比前作感觉是有进步，但跟亚当没啥化学反应，彼此都是，像完成任务般自己演自己的。“反正照着百科演就完了呗”。
不过我鳖演技其实还可以，没有特别出彩但也没有出错，而且，不得不说口音实在好评。被四大风向标提名的确值得，但是没有奥提真的挺奇怪的…（个人感觉至少比小k要强（仅个人感觉，不喜勿喷…
