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.
是男同的故事而不是耽美，更接近真实的LGBT🏳️🌈群体，故事结局是可以预想到的he，两个好闺蜜都找到了自己的真爱（rich and hot），整体节奏很欢乐轻松搞笑，一些gay community里的笑话虽然get不到但不妨碍跟着一起笑，在骄傲月🌈上映很合适，会很能在同志群体里得到共鸣，是消磨睡前时间的一个不错选择
“我今年30岁，从没交过男朋友，也没谈过恋爱。”这还刻板印象啊。以及聚会不该喧闹吗，安静留给无人知晓的夜吧。
Ejnar 的任性差点让他和Iver永远长眠于格陵兰岛。记录真的比性命还重要吗？我想Ejnar应该也有后悔过。孤独与世隔绝真的可以逼疯一个坚强的人。
从写信那里开始渐入佳境，虽然很俗套，但我就是个喜欢看浪漫喜剧的土狗
但Will和Noah不搭啊
一开始还挺真实，越往后越狗血，最后竟然成了一部狗血心情鸡汤般的温馨爱情合家欢。。。浪费了这个背景，也让这个题材变得相当低龄化了。
Dramatic gay版的《傲慢与偏见》，但会引发人的思考。虽然最后以romance结尾，可他们对待感情和性的随性又让人担心能有多长久，当然也许根本他们都不在意“长久”这个问题（真是世界又有几多长久可言）。至少有Howie和Noah想法不同的人吧，有人相信长久有人享受当下，每个人遵从自己的心就好。细节处理不够好，也不浪漫，就是在赶剧情吧，只值三颗星，不过很久没看这种类型的电影了，多给一星算是鼓励吧。
或许现世真的没有这样的剧情，但谁不向往美好呢
太表面了，一个局部局地的群像，剧情乏善，但还是有点养眼的。
看到那个modern flag我直接劝退，不好意思，我是个保守的男同。
很合时宜的6月爽片。Happy Pride!
北美亚裔基佬比较真实的写照。想念温哥华的基佬朋友们。
氛围挺轻松的，可以当个下饭剧，BGM选歌真的很符合通讯录的sense了。
《火烧岛》，拍把一群同性恋放到一个岛上去，台词就跟不上了，噼里啪啦。
冲着北欧冰原风景去的，但是拍摄手法实在平常，剧情和视觉都没调度妥帖。
多一星给asian representation
诺亚的线算是基佬版《傲慢与偏见》吧，改编得还不错，但是豪伊的线太水太平淡了点，也并没有觉得医生是个很好的选择，毕竟基佬们的故事就是应该再drama一些才好看啊！
修改评分了 前半段觉得Pride and Prejudice式的结构太束手束脚，太brainy，结果今天早上意外点开后半段开始看，马上就真情流露了。不得不说，现在大部分美国同影片，技术选角真的精良，但这也是弱点，因为在一部长篇里，光影，配乐，悬疑歌舞喜剧元素一箩筐反而会让观众丢失重点，毕竟这是看电影而不是上菜。后半段博文和Charlie的线终于生动了起来，完完全全和博文的角色共鸣了，抹泪～～对了，博文唱歌也很好听诶！因为后半段给5🌟
太表面了，一个局部局地的群像，剧情乏善，但还是有点养眼的。
是部有趣的电影。
