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.
埃德加·赖特一贯的特色，各种类型和迷影的杂糅。杀人狂、精神病，最后竟然还有鬼屋，多种恐怖片元素集合。优质的镜头语言、音乐品味和女演员让影片有着本应有的“精彩”，只是女主角看到鬼魂就要四处奔跑，我都不知道她为什么要跑，也不明白她要跑到哪里去，而这样的情节竟然在后半段频繁出现，实在令人难以忍受。妓女如同演员，女明星梦碎伦敦，这样的升华，好像已经司空见惯平平无奇了。
迪士尼的版权炫耀和保护宣传电影，大胆的想法和厉害的制作，混杂但并没有特别违和，但是就电影本身而言一般般，故事框架仍旧太老套了，套了许多新鲜事物上去就真的太缝合太花里胡哨了。另外反派为什么是彼得潘呀😡卡通角色都是按设定存活的吧，唯独长不大的彼得潘长大成了油腻大叔我不能接受🥲
正好跟前面看的《黑天鹅》有些相同元素：镜子、女演员、精神压力、幻觉……不过这部最终走向了灵异追凶路线。叙事手法没什么新鲜的，视听方面还满带劲
码bgm，感谢守望电影翻译
31.10.2021 | @ Regal Majestic | 因为调低了预期，还是很惊喜的。在“流水账谁家强“的开始一段过去之后逐渐步入正轨。有几个质量不错的jump scare，中间那段clusterfuck处理得超棒！同为camp，比Malignant的综合实力还是更好一点？（但是，女主的声音真是太难听了）
明显男性视角，最后上楼那段我看笑了……不喜欢，剧本特别差、各种漏洞。女主偶尔演的也不行。两个星给伪女权（其实是连环杀男人）主题，毕竟很多女人都被杀了……不喜欢导演……如果没有安雅做配角，估计这个片不会有这么多宣传。制片方狗屎运吧。
如果说Baby Driver质量欠佳但依然是一部纯正的Edgar Wright影片，那么本片就可以正式宣布他作为一个auteur的死亡。曾经赖以成名的剪辑风格完全丧失不见，标志性的英式幽默也荡然无存，但对铅黄风格的模仿让前两幕至少字面意义的好看，直到第三幕的彻底崩塌：影片高潮极其拧巴的处理以及完全画蛇添足的尾声。可惜了戴安娜·瑞格女爵士完美的谢幕演出
剧情音乐画面演技都很棒…最后的反转太贴切了。感觉本片是在以女性视角解读男性凝视，一个在片中从六十年代就一直存在的东西。片中男性凝视=灰色无脸僵尸的设定也很有意思。结尾最讽刺的一个地方：男性灰色无脸僵尸让女主杀掉老奶奶，但是女主却试图阻止老奶奶自杀———老色批们死了都没有对女性共情。但是也不知道老奶奶哪一种结局更让人悲哀：是被捅死在床上还是变成黑寡妇。片里一个小细节：老奶奶杀男人都是乱刀捅死的，然而第一次试图杀女主却是毒杀，还想让她死前躺舒服。按犯罪心理来分析，前者是overkill 后者shows remorse （当然也有想伪装女主自杀的缘由）。 总而言之电影细节处理很棒，好久没看过这么畅快淋漓的片子了。
安娜长得太魔性了，就是看了忍不住再看那种。
前半段基本就是文艺剧情片，大量冗长无用的对白只有豆瓣的文青能够看得乐不可支，作为一部英国电影这算是老传统了，紧凑是什么对于他们来说完全不重要，秀肌肉才是他们想要做的事情，但是对于一个爱看纯粹惊悚恐怖的观众来说真是受了大罪了，要忍受过前面大量穿插的废话以及桥段然后才会呈上大餐。看很多豆瓣文青对前半段大夸特夸，并大言不惭地表示“后半段垮掉了”真是好笑，你爱看文艺片就去挑几部文艺片看呗，这部电影走向还是惊悚为主，你说后半段垮掉了，那要不要给你们再跳一小时的舞唱两小时的歌才算不垮呢？豆瓣这种群体实在可笑，跑惊悚片来装文艺，去服装店买皮鞋，说多有病就有多有病。
好嘛，最后还能拐成“girls help girls”，反正我觉得这是投机取巧。电影本身不能算很差，但看似很“潮”的外包装里裹着的还是极为老套的剧情。Anya不适合演这类角色，看起来好像没有心。
埃德加赖特就是故事再烂，音乐的处理还是一直在线的。
有点出乎意料的喜欢，甚至感到Edgar Wright就是很任性的为贩卖自己的taste，而不惜在灯红酒绿的都是传说、连环杀手片中搞反转。虽然剧情俗不可耐，但梦境和镜中世界的串联颇有点复刻希胖的感觉。可能因为60年代金曲真的yyds，就连冤魂在窄巷里扑面而来都如歌舞片一般的踩点大师。不得不说Anya Taylor已经在同龄女演员里出挑万分了。
想法还是有的，各种画风的拼凑，迪士尼各大IP大集合（虽然好多不认识）加一星，但是剧情真的是用来凑数的……
3.5 极佳的娱乐电影，今年最优秀的烂片。溢出空洞框架的文化情怀和类型复古元素像摆在橱窗中供人窥视的洋娃娃——割裂抑诡异？不要试图在任何附庸的议题上找到表现的落脚，安雅惊艳面容之下的符号化特质逐渐被流动的情感实体所取代，一切最终都只是赖特对那个年代的另类注解。如此夺目的视觉表现，足以证明了这个城市，或是这个被欲望主体不断稀释裂变的梦魇，才是这部影片唯一的主角。它并不是「穆赫兰道」的回魂，而是「好莱坞往事」的进化，它让人们不再企图从不安的境遇中获取记忆的宽慰。在一面镜子上折射出两个迥异的主体，而后无情地将其击碎，不被绑架、不被困窘，它让自我精神的溃败变得像个笑话，也让收尾的时装梦变为了廉价的幻想，在这个任何主题都难以立足于的时代，我们需要一场终结的大火，一次退场的闭幕来警醒执着世人的自以为是。
梗超密集！2D+3D+真人的画面也非常奇妙
一星半，老玫瑰遗作，玫瑰本瑰表演完美，气场惊人，压住了这糟烂本子忙着空翻转不停，试图让你拍大腿的劲头，扯出了些许对女人在现代社会，时至今日都适用的适时批判。回头再看这戏，就了解精神分裂遗传史的梗延宕地太长以致于拖沓失焦，赖特摆弄的灯管美学和惊诧叙事又没有强大到强悍的风格来压制或者掩盖故事的整体偏移，所以一个乡村小女娃即没急迫的自我认同危机也没迫切的自我解构风险，你让她破案破出个女性和解，姐姐妹妹携手向明天就非常顺拐且本末倒置，另外这也和麦肯齐淑雅、安雅豪放的选角定位有关，大概只有拍成动画片可破。
韦斯莱兄弟真省钱啊
3.0 2d加3d加真人好死亡，彼得潘成了塌房咖
本以为是恐怖片却是部类似人格分裂的蜕变妹子的电影，很是失望
