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.
一个印度版的逆转裁判，但建立在更沉重的背景之上。印度电影除了艺术的功用外，还承担着教化功能。所以观众对片子的热情，有一部分源自于现实而非电影。
多给一颗星，近几年最好的蜡笔小新剧场版，可以排在历年前三的位置，没想到推理部分出乎意料的好，还以为会像往年一样抛掉逻辑性，观感非常流畅。
印度人这社会等级，瞎胡闹程度跟某赵国有的一拼，哎！
他们被冠以低种姓人，是排除在四大种姓之外的原住民。没有配给卡，不能购买低价粮食，不能参与选举，更没有自己的土地。他们甚至可以随意的被贴上任何标签，盗窃者、罪犯…虚假案件的受害者！
就一句话！不是拍得有多好，是真的敢拍，真的能拍。题材取胜了，其他不聊了。
"无论错几次都能从头开始，那就是青春啊。"
毕竟过了看这类影片的最佳观影年龄，始终有种跳戏脱戏的感觉，哈哈
电影开头的片段就让人感受到扑面而来黑暗，但我觉得当事人以及低种姓人经历的是深陷泥潭，淤泥从“四面八方”袭来淹没五官而造成的黑暗，而电影拍出来的是：太阳每天东升西落，矗立前方的庞然大物却遮天蔽日，在某一天它偶然弯个腰低个头或被人撬动后，阳光将会驱散其后终年的阴暗。
致敬每一位为底层人民奋斗的英雄，致敬每一个推广赞美这种行为的艺术家
这生而无人权的国家，这黑白颠倒的国家。种姓制度是印度最愚蠢黑暗的统治方法，可惜的是达利特人自己都不会反抗，印度教里总觉得这世吃尽了苦，下辈子才能换来幸福。好奇怪的理念，这辈子都不修，却在为渺茫的下辈子忍耐。另:印度人打人薅头发似乎是个习惯嘛
印度是真正有希望的国家，至少他们允许这样的电影存在。
印度的执行团队能力非常好，但是在节奏以及表演上，过于表面外化，剧作也是为了纯粹的正义，缺少裂痕。可是呢，这是印度1995年的案件，中国2022年了，还他妈这个吊样！
别人95年的错误在21年出来承认了，我们66的错误却还只字不能提。 我们与恶的距离里面，替精神病杀人犯辩护和找原因，被吹上了天的王赦，在杰伊比姆面前，就像个刚学会走路的婴儿
小时候励志想做漫画家，想起小学那会每天放学都会去二手书店花1块钱买一本蜡笔小新的漫画书，回家躲在被窝里看，慢慢积累看了很多被小新影响了，自己简易画了一些小新的同人漫画在班里面给同学们传着看，看着大家开心的样子很有成就感。如今已经30了，做了一份跟漫画无关的工作，回想当初，可能这就是青春吧~
一个为底层平权的律师对抗体制的故事，题材上确实很敢拍，节奏也算是印度片中比较优秀的序列，只是全片还是没有摆脱印度片的俗套，人物塑造，起承转合，甚至何时起歌舞都计算得非常精准，人物也是比较脸谱化（对于印度演员也有点脸盲），过于伟光正的男主，弱势的底层，邪恶的反派，不过难得的是在本片看到了女性的成长，从开始的忍气吞声到最后敢于向强权申诉，这样的故事确实足够吸引。7.8
3.5。虽然这部电影拍得很直白也很硬气，略显过于伟光正，但电影把一段很气人的真人真事非常有条理地展现出来，到最后终于真相大白并赢得胜利的结局还是很激动人心，幸好还有这样的正义之人在世上……印度电影很敢拍，但也更加令人不喜欢印度这个地方，各方面都太“肮脏”了。
看了这部片子觉得印度是有希望的，更加尊敬印度。
A- 年度最佳电影，该火了。从头至尾，没有一句废话。根据真人真事改编，把警察做过所有肮脏的事赤裸裸拍出来，太一针见血了。律师太帅了，维护正义之道，不放过一丘之貉。印度是真能拍，也真敢拍。官官勾结行贿、包庇和滥用私权，把不配拥有土地不配活在世上的烂民活活打死，他们的命一文不值，死了就丢在荒郊野岭，太他妈黑暗了，惨无人道。种姓歧视就像吸了血的蚂蟥一般，永远吸附在印度人民身体里，吸干他们的血为止。重要的事情说三遍，这部电影该火了！这部电影该火了！！这部电影该火了！！！
我想多数人的高分不是打给电影本身，而是羡慕他国的电影不必戴着镣铐舞蹈。
完全没想到这是一个关于马克思主义者的故事，影片开头，丈夫这个角色当了半个小时的“伪男主”，让我一度以为这会是类似《肖申克的救赎》那种为自己洗白冤屈的走向，后面又发现律师才是真男主。确实，在那种社会环境下，最底层的人怎么可能有机会当主角？有些人会觉得这个片子过于个人英雄主义，这个片也确实有一些过于煽情的地方，能看出一些很商业化的套路，但整体立意还是非常棒的，节奏也不闷，片子虽长，但让人想一口气看完。
