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.
花样年华，青春正当时，剧情不拖沓，年轻的演员表现很好
日版轻松戏谑的高校青春派风格，国产版以“张伟”的成长心路为主导线，寓意每个平凡生命可以活出精彩，国产节奏更偏教育意义一点。这也没什么不好，剧本大致走向是一样的。直到团体上线，专业教练，临时取消，集体冒险，编剧逐渐离大谱。我觉出的味是国产编剧没能走出“团结紧张严肃活泼”这几个指导意见总纲。然后在这种高大上结构里，硬要把少年的青春秀同样拉高到正式比赛，人生梦想等等，就让原有的故事架构变形了。
虽然是改编，但依然是国内真正好的热血青春片。
故事有点薄弱。但题材新颖。拍的青春励志幽默。七分半。
原版我非常喜欢啊。这一版没有了搞笑只剩热血，不太喜欢。光线又想偷鸡，奈何长津湖没有那么拉胯群众热情正高，再者打铁还需自身硬，虽然导演连麦演员跑影厅也很辛苦了，但你这质量想要自来水就纯属自取其辱了。这种自己感动自己号召别人自来水就有点邪教的感觉了。
还是很好看的，虽然都是新人但能感觉到演技在线，故事也很贴近现实，不会那么突兀，在夏天上映应该更好
虽然有日本版珠玉在前，但是这一版也绝对值得，积极、阳光、拼搏、友谊，这才是青春该有的样子。
有一些画面的处理也特别诗意 夏天
人物有成长曲线 每个人性格鲜明
演员真是选得太好了，不过大部分恋爱被这么一拍怎么都差不多啊！好落寞。一开头就想到《地球之夜》，结果还真联动《地球之夜》
（频频出现贾木许《地球之夜》，女主恰好也是出租车司机。）
6恕我脸盲。
五个扑通（普通）少年，标准的戏剧化学生时代。
このような恋を描く最高な角度、
青春就是愣冲，就是不服，就是坚持到底，便会创造奇迹的故事。虽然有点老套和过时，另外类似的故事其实有很多。但是演员真的都很好，很多细节也很用心，给影片整体加分不少。
昨天按摩的时候，找了这部看，看过日版，听说这个翻拍口碑不错，所以看了，还是有些失望。
和日版相比，最大的问题是本来应该开朗活泼的青少年总是给人苦大仇深的感觉，虽然我其实是不习惯日式表演里的肢体和语言的夸张风格，但人家好歹是在灿烂的笑在感染你，也许是我们的青年演员都太过社会了吧，很多自然而然的东西都丢失了。在尊重原著的基础上进行了最大程度的本土化，这点上还是值得肯定的，而且在对于花样游泳的学习中也比日式的误打误撞好很多。不过还是那句话，把青春还给青春，青年演员多点青春的味道才是最重要的。
大家都笑的很开心
个人共情之处多加一星。一直觉得伊藤的气质很特殊。这次，她作为银幕女主角是让人眼前一亮，也是非常让人继续期待她的活跃。早前日本电影批评里面常见女优论，基于女优们大多为国民级女明星的幕前的多重形象展开，并与作者为中心的导演论相互并行。虽然现在似乎不流行这一视点，甚至伊藤目前根本无法撑起这一论断。但令人兴奋的是，但凡有关青春、恋爱话题的制作，即便是小众影片，女主角也容易被作为【女性】想象出来。奇，就在于伊藤这样拥有与【浪漫的恋爱，激情的性爱】毫无关系的形象是很少见的。在我看来，她的形象并不前卫，甚至故事的经纬来看似乎也并无两样，但内容与表象结合，她本身的矛盾却更值得玩味。我想银幕内的【看电影】似乎也是这一换喻的连接：非异性恋恋爱想象体--银幕内，爱需要一种表征，但绝非仅是一种想象。
这就是青春吧，印象特别深刻的是男主到喜欢的女生身边“呵呵”一笑，让我觉得好真实！
