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.

喜欢片头与片尾的设计。这两条线的衔接有点生硬，最后的字幕有点强行正确了......
未断代的母系史与以母性为线索的对历史与未来的双向追溯，如果减轻对历史与血缘的反复强调会更加完美。
一个很精妙的抱错孩子的故事，放置在一个历史惨剧的大背景之下。先是发现孩子不是自己的，后又知道自己的钱生孩子死了，再然后跟孩子的亲生母亲同居共同抚养、到最后坦白后失去了孩子，最后跟孩子的爸爸又重新怀了孩子。而与此同时，自己姥爷的遗体、也被重新挖掘出来。这一家人的血脉终于承前启后的流传下来。最后所有受害者家属一起围在乱坟岗的画面，太好哭了。不过想来想去，跟整个片子的关系也并不很大，还是有点硬塞的成分在。阿莫多瓦到底是有多喜欢佩内洛普克鲁兹！这才是真muse吖、而老阿也是真长情～男主是我的菜，我的菜，我的菜！😘
太久没看阿尔莫多瓦有些生疏了 直到这狗血又克制的熟悉感扑面而来
3.5 感受到了历史部分的提升 可是两个女人之间......
“We should all be feminists.” “无声的历史并不存在。”
【7】一方面是揭开尘封的谜底，寻找历史真相，一方面是挑明由“抱错孩子”而累积的无数谎言。能看出不少夹带私货，想讲历史，也一如既往地想刻画“母亲”，但两件事之间的联系没那么清楚，有点抽象、暧昧了。（单说表演，潘潘虽然不错，但没那么亮眼，记不住）
就是那种，十年前在广州地王广场还是哪买盗版dvd的时候看到有眼熟的明星+看起来略有噱头的剧情介绍就顺手买回来，在一个百无聊赖的晚上看完，不好看也不难看，看完立刻忘记所有剧情，就这样度过了宁静、寡淡而平庸的一天，的那种电影。
学校周末放假后看的第一部电影是阿莫多瓦的狗血故事片。已经很久没看正统艺术类故事片的我还是有被打到，不得不佩服编剧的脑洞。是的，她们是母亲，但也是女人
这种电影就是单看一部不会觉得特别惊艳 但折服于导演持续不断旺盛稳定的创作力和西班牙配色
{★★★} 交错历史与现实中寻觅与失去血亲的创作瓶颈期产物，我感谢阿莫多瓦还没忘记怎么把一个平淡似水的故事讲出热情与曲折，尽管这次的热情、多是半凉的，这次的曲折、多是冗赘的。铭记历史之罪自然应该，不过下次最好也铭记抖一抖低廉的画面质感。
20220308三八节特别观看，感觉是两个完全不相关的主题生拼硬凑出来的，所要讲的主题也是模糊不清，不明白为什么要这么设置，内容太割裂了。不过对两位母亲的刻画塑造上还是非常不错的，克鲁兹的表演也值得提名最佳女主。
结局是怎么突然升华了的？有点莫名其妙 里面同性情节描写还比较细腻
前面不错，后面故事焦点转移以后，不太能共情上
赞成厚重的东西轻轻地说，但前后割裂得太明显，感觉是没有准备得当就开拍了。男人随着历史被埋葬隐形，女人在传承在面对。“历史永远不会沉默。不论他们如何诋毁、篡改、伪造，人类的历史都拒绝保持沉默。”
一个电影包含了两个故事，遗憾的是两个故事确实是平行的，它们单独讲其实有更大的可能性和吸引力
好喜欢这个故事，喜欢这种“正常国度的理想状态”，家族史和血脉的延续有自生的力量，庄严但不哭天抢地；亲密关系建立在自尊与互相尊重的基础上，家庭是有爱的；每个人都独立，可亲，最重要的是，他们相信历史不会沉默，这种否定性的判断可以成为进步性的力量，去掀起每一寸浸血的土地。生者是骸骨，我们的儿女就是我们，历史从来不是静静向前，所有今天的沉默都是明天的先声。
总能在阿莫多瓦的电影中看到一种真正的解放～历史与现实的共通之处在于男性位置的缺失，不同之处却是女性由被动到主动成为主体的进步～
冇感情冇灵魂只有爽，从头到尾铺满打戏，文戏单纯走过场。尽管这类片是基于情境而非情节，但两个钟头内不停换景，景随人打，就像数个回合的擂台战，实在疲，而且我永远不必担心主角的处境。
