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.
但权势者需要之时还要讨价还价地拿走它。
可惜看的配音版，也许正是因为剧情很好猜所以才更可怕吧
为本片所折射出的良心起立致敬！种姓制度、贫富悬殊、妇女地位低下、卫生条件落后、宗教迷信……使我依然不认为印度是文明的现代化国家，但并不能否认这个国家是完全没有希望的，是不会进步的，而进步不能指望TZ的自我优化，进步是每一个人的一小步，从一点点的努力争取而来，内部监督往往无效无力，外部监督才是正确之路。本片的主角律师是一位包青天式人物，将矛头直指暴力机器之一the police，凭坚毅与正义将公道还之于民，这恰恰是底层民众最希望看到的，印度拍出来了并展现出来了……反观我们，或许可能永远也拍不出来了吧，是因为不公不存在吗，未必
其实我们也能拍出这样的电影 只是没人敢拍也没人敢过审
看了n部日剧后改印度片换换口味，听说是小众高分片，片名着实劝退（个人预感这部在若干年后也许会像《五杀瞒天记》和最近重火的《魔幻时刻》后突然火了），但实际却非常震撼。像印度版的《辩护人》，但感觉本片更胜一筹。还分了两天才看完，第一天没看完以后就去搜剧透看仨人到底怎么了。ps.律师演员很帅。不过看了影评才知道电影结局给美化了，现实的结局跟电影还是相去甚远。
每次都会被印度电影的反抗精神震撼，本片涉及的冤案悲天悯人的基调令人义愤填膺。没有人权的低种姓人，被暴行践踏，被歧视压榨。更有甚者，被安上莫须有的罪名强行屈打成招。贫苦并没有剥夺他们的善良与尊严，捉住蛇后放其回归自然，被冤枉后遭受殴打虐待仍不认罪。“皮肉的伤痛可以愈合，但偷盗的罪名一旦扣下就是一生”。影片毫不遮掩地剖开印度司法体系的黑暗与腐败，将其赤裸裸地呈现在印度民众乃至世界的视野中。“法院将给出的不仅是一次判决，更是希望”。在律师对真相步步还原，对正义据理力争的情况下，罪恶终于得到了合理的审判。“斗争的运动代表的是千万受压迫者的泪水，斗争万岁”。
虽然制作略显粗糙，但影片内容很令人震撼，虚构的况且如此，事实得多令人绝望。
说起来，似乎没见过我国有这样的法庭电影，即便是宣传性质的也没有，一切都靠罗翔。
（要是不突然跳舞，我会打5星）
（要是不突然跳舞，我会打5星）
印度虽然是个槽点满满的国家，但印度的电影人敢于直视他们社会中的污点和弊病，敢于通过影视化来引起社会重视，这一点我们任重而道远。片子的情节设定以及律师的抽丝剥茧都非常精密，法庭戏也比较精彩。只不过本片导演没有《辩护人》的导演宋宇硕那么圆熟的技巧。其实这两部片子有许多相通之处。
“尊重一个人的才能取决于他们使用它的目的。”
我上次有这种“你们这个司法体系要维护法律尊严简直小菜一碟嘛”的感觉还是看「华盛顿邮报」哎！灯塔国也就勉强算了，但是我现在竟然在羡慕印度？？？
任何国度都有为正义坚持的人群，这些人书写了历史，这些历史节点堆成了一座进步的小山，每座山又滋润了无数颗跳动的心...。
印度版《辩护人》，剧情真实，但依旧非常不习惯歌舞。当然，不敢对比。
8分左右。
比姆是印度宪法之父，也是印度第一位法律部长 。印度的姓氏是分级别的，贱民身份世代相传，不能接受教育，不能穿鞋，只能从事卑贱的工作，甚至在走路的时候影子都怕落到路人的身上，这是印度历史最黑暗的阴影。
如果看到不公就去斗争，斗争是光荣的。知易行难，每一个只是看电影的人都该反思，如果是自己遇到此类事件是否愿意花费时间和精力去帮助受害者，而不考虑一分钱的回报。
“我常以为是众生普渡了佛祖”“杰伊比姆是成千上万人的泪珠”
七年前我曾在印度旅行，行走贫民窟，感受溽热，垃圾味，还在孟买海边经历了一场盛大象神节。也许印度的历史太深厚沉重，使它如淤泥一般覆盖在今天，拨也拨不去，所以你很容易在表象的印度和真实的印度之间沉迷。宛如一颗宝珠捧在脏手里。我们在电影里常看到歌舞的印度，现代的印度，励志的印度，欢笑的印度，但那都不是真印度，可能大量的印度人自己都没机会坐在影院里看到这种印度，贫民窟工人一个月辛苦的收入仅相当于人民币一两百元，而我在他们高级商场里吃饭，并不奢侈的一顿饭也是人均一两百。这部电影就是替那些进不去商场的人说话的，所以它意义非凡，换一个词，它是自己拍摄的“辱印”的印度片，揭露警察体系的黑暗和种姓制度的不公。当年离开时我购买了一个甘地像，至今仍摆在我的书房。甘地具有一种精神，正是不屈的人性。
