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.
北欧古代就这么一股子穷酸气，还有欧洲大陆传统的男盗女娼的习俗
北欧人版的王子复仇记，画风和摄影满分，但是影片过于注重形式，而忽略了故事本身的内核，不仅缺乏反派角色的刻画，也缺乏王子内心的成长和挣扎。
我一般不给美国人拍的亚洲片高分，但这部真的太好看了…
舞台剧留在舞台就好了...简直就是维京版图兰朵
北欧跳大神，还行。看完之后就明白为什么媒体评分比较高但是观众觉得so so了。这个电影的文学性还是挺强的。但是多数观众会觉得过于冗长。但是我想主创是憋着口气，毕竟北欧元素长期被英国创作者霸占，他们想正一正名，所以交代的细了一些。和绿骑士类似，A24要重构神话传说，也就意味着重新定义“恐惧”是什么。这个男孩的最大恐惧，一个是母亲是“邪恶”的，另外父亲也不像他想的那么伟光正，然后他变成了他一直恨的杀父仇人那样的人，手刃母亲和半血源兄弟。一开始看的时候，就感觉这个崇尚血统纯种的故事怎么放到今天来讲。实际讲的还可以，地位、财富、女人都是抢来的，就连他戴在脖子上那个信物，也是父亲从别的王子身上抢来的。但是杀戮和牺牲是真实的，男主最后是为了保护自己的血脉，而不是报仇，这样的他可以进入瓦尔哈拉吗？
哈姆雷特的原始版本，丹麦王子复仇记比莎士比亚更加朴实狂野，从一开始文邹邹的戏剧台词有点尴尬，然而渐入佳境，后面一连串的复仇简单粗暴，原始北欧的血性和单纯，外景地实在是美。
COOOOOL~~~~~~！ 但是不好看！！
尽管剧情非常老套但我就是吃这一套！！太帅了吧！！！
除了动作场面简陋了点，简直完美的大制作，充满神话、宿命的复仇故事再到纯粹人性的觉醒，这个最后一幕让故事其实脱离了王子复仇的窠臼，是个非常漂亮的升华。
摄影很棒，画面很美，但不如之前的《女巫》和《灯塔》（剧透：Valkyrie的镜头全在预告里了）
王子复仇记
乐子极多，值得一看，尤其最后克苏鲁大战东海龙王大草，仿佛在看哥斯拉番外。以及杨紫琼对刘思慕说你长得真像你妈（陈法拉）。我：你瞎还是我瞎？
哈姆雷特（2022限定北欧神棍版）
很好看。以及不是很明白有的短评到底想在美漫改编的美式超英里找到什么东西，西游记吗？
故事吧约等于没有啥故事~~~~~神叨叨的，耐着性子看完的~~~看完想的是，就这？
我不理解，这种用电影规模投资和电影化视听语言来拍舞台剧的项目是如何成功立项并拉到投资的？我不理解，没有母子乱伦后续剧情却先声夺人地能安排儿子撞见母亲换衣服情节的剧本是如何出炉的？我不理解，和汤姆克鲁斯恋爱结婚过的女人为什么上了年纪之后都长成了老妖婆的面目？
哈姆雷特（2022限定北欧神棍版）
COOOOOL~~~~~~！ 但是不好看！！
特效甚至不及艾尔登法环，镜头也就是冰岛观光正常水平，男主时刻像个中二病少年，星给冰岛比约克和音乐，需要看几部伯格曼来治愈我这几小时
It’s a shock to look at the early stage of our civilization and how individualism could be so deeply rooted in the DNA of their culture.
