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.
前半段旧时代，舞台风格极强，妙笔频出，用模型做小镇空拍，并以刀划破天空作为抗战到来的预警；用真人来扮演被供着的佛像，还在逃跑时候卷起来扛着到处走。 后半段新时代，犹如《霸王别姬》《无悔追踪》的串场，也有自然灾害时期，大粪里找蛆烤着吃补充蛋白这种具体情节。叙事结构上阴阳交叠，牛头马面来捉人上路，不过黄泉路上的拍法未免单调。
剧本，配乐，演员的表演都精彩，几乎没有不好的表演，主角，店小二，邱福新的童年小孩，都太棒了。有两个不满意的地方，一个是文革那段的镜头和表演有点太“影视剧”，一个是导演的两次出场。特别是结尾出场可能对导演的身份来说很重要，但是有点破坏影片余韵，毕竟邱福新才是真正的主角，那些可能遗忘或者被遗忘的人才是主角。
我没评这部还是被删了？管它，反正五星打上？
看完就很想找個四川人說說話，把剷鏟板板錘子格老子的都講個邊
真不适合晚上看，四个小时，没有快进，中间睡着两次，最后还是彻底睡着了……
啊 这浑然打开而不受限的感觉 库斯图里卡般满屏放烟花的感觉 大大小小一切皆为过往的感觉 期待重看一遍
@Anthology Film Archives 一代人有一代人的伤痕，the play goes on
新作者登场，手工奇迹，这个时代难见的珍稀品。已见与未见的集体之殇混合私人记忆，回荡在阴阳虚实明暗、严肃嬉笑怒骂之间。平面置景好比戏台，台上台下台前台后都在“照镜”，每一场戏都在“结晶”。这些晶体并非完美无瑕，我看前面还有些难入戏，建国后的部分是越看越入迷。
和院线版判若云泥。
#SGIFF#风格绮丽，几组长镜头和诗歌的运用恰到好处，☯︎交替的转换也颇有创意，阴间也和阳间一样。时代浮沉下小人物的命运能被拍得如此魔幻现实，真的很难得。 如果说缺点的话，就是时长太久了，叙事的话用诗歌作为间隔也显得取巧了。
故事终于完整 希望以后的dc风格也能够统一 闪电侠跑步姿势还是很丑 还以为会有一版跟电视剧版一样
那时我踏入影院看了公映版的正义联盟，四年的时间转瞬即逝，漫长的是中途的等待，不过事实证明，他值得等待，永远如此!
把故事完整的说出来，才会在转折的时候显得合理，人物也丰富了起来，那种超级英雄的宿命感也凸现了出来。四个小时看完觉着也不是很长。
一部聪明沉稳，极具独特艺术风格的个人史诗。
整部影片舉重若輕，人如鴻毛在時代的洪流中。從臺上到臺下，陽間到陰間，歷史是一出唱不完的戲，一條渡不完的河。個體身上的灰塵和苦難，抖也抖不盡，說也說不完，但還是要說，不管是用嶄新的話語還是古老的曲調也要說，不然時間就是一碗孟婆湯，抹掉了真實的鮮活的記憶，只留下白茫茫的一片廢墟。
是没有超级英雄单独电影，直接讲整队超级英雄对抗黑暗的能讲的很好的故事了。铺垫了每个英雄的故事，也给他们了很好的动力加入正义联盟，且想表达的情绪没有乱七八糟。就是有些点我这个门外汉不太懂，黑色战袍的超人和后面蝙蝠侠做梦和小丑对话那一情节我是真的没懂。很完整有意思的超级英雄电影，且不落入漫威那种感觉，不错！
3.5/5。本月最后一场在nyc的电影，这次雷暴还专门改了航班为了看一场，结果既没雷暴又还是期望过高。可以看出导演的野心，也很喜欢各种民俗和戏曲元素的叠加（唉，听到熟悉的戏曲还有点鼻酸，想外公了。）和四川话（字幕翻不出精髓啊），但我不是很喜欢整部电影给我的戏台感：虽然戏如人生，但以此来演绎人生和历史又会让我觉得出戏。像是儿时的一个梦，却总是和现实隔着一层帘布。同时男主的这个角色塑造也没能persuade me 他在戏曲上的成就，因为很显然这不是全片的focus。在知道它是众筹后还是不满意片中的戏曲训练，总觉得如果要展现丘福是一位如此杰出的丑角，这方面还是应该占比更多，否则就让我感到脱节和牵强了。另外真的很冗长，后半段略好。不过还是未来可期。(@anthology)
这部电影是奇迹，是失而复得，是希望不灭，是导演和演员和粉丝共同凭信念筑起的巴比伦塔，就算已然坍塌，但它曾如此接近天国。此生再也不会期待和热爱任何一部电影如此这般，由衷地向参与了导剪运动的粉丝和扎克施奈德致敬！
2021.3.18一天，豆瓣评分从8.8涨到了9.0，粉丝们过年了。
三个小时看完出来走在31摄氏度的新加坡街头，觉得温度刚刚好。
