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.
三星半 / 看到最后那些画很熟悉，搜了一下是在cat puzzle里经常见到的图案
看完也不知道奇迹在哪里 本来以为是个无聊的意淫的富二代追傻小子 后半部变成原谅自己相互谅解的江边的曼切斯特
很好的原型 故事却讲得不好 不知道究竟多少是真实事件 姐姐是存在于过去的揭幕和父子和解如果编排得近一点 会对节奏有很大的帮助 还有希望韩国人可以该放弃的时候放弃搞笑情节 太割裂了 不如从头到尾温情纪实 最后的冲击才会大一些 女友的角色安排有点奇怪 漂亮的议员女儿莫名其妙喜欢上男主 梦想还是为了他…
开头那一段两个怪胎竟然相遇了#^真是美好。可惜后来全是悲剧%
真的一般，前面小情侣来来往往还有点意思，后面的硬煽情太套路了，纯粹在硬推。
凭一己之力的天才改变世人对猫的偏见，但超凡的头脑注定癫狂。服装与场景设计非常养眼，本尼和Claire表演细腻又感人。
前戏多欢闹，后戏就多虐心，不过两个30+的高中生，也算是个奇迹吧
标准的英国文艺传记片。服化道满分，两位主演的表演满分（本尼本身就不说了，女主这些年演技着实见长）。整个画面也太美太舒服了，真是大爱维多利亚Era的调调，再加上导演的油画处理，每一帧都可以截图壁纸。Louis Wain笔下的猫猫真的是太太太可爱了，栩栩如生，马上就下单了一本国内出的精装书，而且也好适合做拼图。就是这部电影感觉更像电视电影，可能是叙事方式以及画幅的原因，btw，服化道可以冲奥么？
林允儿好好看 不过男女主爱情哈哈哈哈这真的好理想主义
稍稍有一些缺乏想象力，这部分想象力正是区别路易斯威恩和一般创作者的致命要素。但人物历史溯回做的还是挺认真的，中规中矩。
“听说人死之前，会看到一生中最美的画面” 落日余晖 眼神坚定的女人 猫 神经质 海边嬉戏的少女 藤蔓 铁架床 童话 剪裁合身的西装 油画 暴风雨 溺水意象 草地 橡树林 剧院 复古色调 精巧配乐 有一颗星可能要扣在卷福身上，虽然是毫无瑕疵的演技，然而其塑造“天才”的方式不应该是和神夏如出一辙的神经质，失去了这个角色的记忆点
在贫困山村里人们通常借助铁道桥走路，悲剧发生在一次在父亲驾驶的火车经过时，姐姐为了救弟弟坠湖丧生。父亲无法原谅自己而变得冷漠而孤僻，弟弟则在化为鬼魂的姐姐陪伴下长大成人。为了避免类似悲剧，弟弟以一己之力推动各方力量，在家乡建起了一个临时站台，让村民得到实惠，让姐姐得以宽慰，也让父亲得到了解脱。
很乡里乡气，朴实无华的电影，反转依然让我如鲠在喉
人物原型很精彩，電影導演不行。作為cat lover看完的第一反應是去表白我的貓。
两段反转还真是让人肝肠寸断！原来一直陪伴着的姐姐只有自己能看见！原来冷酷的父亲为了儿子背负着生不如死的秘密活着！原来对你们的牵绊是如此强烈竟超过梦想和爱情！姐姐在火车上对弟弟说了两个字“谢谢”，谢谢你一直以来把我记在心里！谢谢你长久的陪伴！谢谢你的再见！ps：林允儿演高中生毫无压力，还是那种勇敢、粗线条、敢爱敢恨的玛丽苏！与外界只有一条铁轨连接，每年都有死于车轮下的村民，哪里都有坚强活着的人啊！
打光和景色很美很童话，但是男主那张脸老是出戏到梵高。
选角导演们现在是一看到天才角色一键打给本尼了。电影本身不太行，某些镜头运动怪怪的。小猫也不够多，难过，预告片里猫猫好多。
Keep painting so that you would not be alone.
7/10
看完才知道 导演的前一部作品是《现在去见你》 也是采用铁路来拍摄 就说看的好亲切
