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.
套着悲情婚姻内核的人物传记片。lucille奋力挽救事业和婚姻，却频遭辜负。近乎偏执的想把戏按照自己的方式来演，其实是她对破碎婚姻的最后挽留。节奏和剧情混乱，仿佛剧本差已经成了冲奥传记片的标配，妮可的演技其实并没有过多get到，但影片末尾处听到I'm home后的出神有深深打动我，这就是所谓的影后moment吧！！恭喜妮可拿下金球影后，期待再战奥斯卡，dream一个二封！！！
爱夫狂魔的她一切以丈夫为中心，愿意为他用事业挽救岌岌可危的婚姻，但是最终从幻想中清醒过来，结尾那段忘词的戏拍的很有寓意，把之前设想好的一切都推翻了。她终于明白为什么他们能在违背很多生活常识下而发生的开场，因为没有了爱，只是做戏。演员的表演真的非常细腻和层次感分明，内心戏也十分强大。
短评区内有一位朋友总结的极其到位：男人为了拯救生意和女人，他成功了；女人为了拯救内容和婚姻，她失败了。当Lucy拿出两张手帕时，生活和喜剧的联接被彻底打破，无法再认真对待感情，此后只剩表演。整体制作精良，但在妮可的表演下显得不那么重要了~
亮点是妮可的演技 但是不如时时刻刻里细致入微
这次台词过多成为了累赘，看得很疲乏。看完全片我对Lucille Ball这个角色十分动容，她是立体的，是一团被重重包围着的火焰，本来可以聚变成一颗闪耀的恒星，但被湮没了光芒。问题是，全片透露出的信息实在是太多了，这也要那也要最后芝麻西瓜混成了一盘稀碎的大乱炖。这原本是一部很好的大女主剧，有血有肉有灵魂有梦想，最终的呈现却有些拉胯，着实可惜。艾伦·索金还是更适合拍更加纯粹的政治片吧，要是在白宫里拍两个多小时的话痨片，就会很精彩。妮可·基德曼演得好，但我感觉也只能得一个提名了。
只是OK，但是对于艾伦·索金来说OK就算很差了。
Sorkin正常水平发挥。One slight problem tho: it is already hard enough to keep up with Sorkin without subtitles, and the Cuban accent just made it impossible.
毕竟我开始喜欢他时就是因为日落大道60号演播室
Nicole Kidman transforms into Lucille Ball. She has the voice, the movements and even looks like her. To say it is a well-acted is the ultimate in understatement. The script weaves different lives of Ball and Arnaz into one week of filming an episode. The performance is so brilliant that it captures your attention every second during the runtime!
轻盈，灵动，锋利，从《丧心病狂》开始，索德伯格以极简主义的姿态进行数字媒介的创作探索，这部片子感觉是他近几年状态最好的一部作品。
后面可能开始精彩吧，看了35分钟真坚持不下去了。
（看看我会不会是豆瓣第2011个围观今年影后表演的观众）
虽然剪辑真的不太好，穿插的几处回忆式采访过多也打乱了节奏，文本对话高密度化，但也真的不难懂。二十几分钟后渐入佳境。一个女演员被制片厂抛弃，来到电视喜剧大获成功后才华仍然周围的人所压制。她对喜剧剧本、表演的认真会被被别人认作现实生活遭受困境后的发泄，甚至没有多少人愿意尝试她的建议，幸好最后结尾令人满意。妮可的表演无疑已经到了一个新的境界
其实片子拍得中规中矩，开头的剪切，还有这种把庞杂的故事线汇聚在一周的时间里叙述方式，跟索金前作《芝加哥七君子》几乎是一模一样。并且因为这个故事相对来说比较小，索金给自己的挑战可能是尽可能多的加议题、加角度。还是很索金的风格，没有一个角色是纸片人，然而这也是短板，一部片子里想说的事情实在是太多了。但是我还是非常非常喜欢索金的剧本和台词，他总是能找到这种堂吉诃德式的人物，总是能一腔孤勇挑战一个个建制的庞然大物。索金怎么有这么多的勇气啊，怎么能檄文一篇接一篇，还热情不减？
终究是美国人的一段历史，就跟我们说射雕英雄传一样，美国人也会觉得无感。
这对夫妻那么多drama剧情 完全没想到选了这段 大家演得都很努力【但是妮可造型真的完全不像 lucy……
——你们注定会分开，没有人像你们相爱，但是他们平淡无趣反而得到了求不得的可以永远在一起的诅咒。
一般般，比较少见的反映智能电子产品正面的设定。虽然只有不到90分钟，主线简单支线却很散，部分运镜还可以。床戏裸露真的可有可无，只当福利。互相偷窥神TM换来个莫名其妙的见义勇为。还以为结局要和肥宅在一起呢，结果就是一个挡刀的路人甲。记住两个知识点：钉枪绷住当枪使，杀人能治社恐症。
比预期的好啊，索金写剧本还是可以的，好莱坞的守旧、性别歧视和各种潜规则还有lucille强大的内心和婚姻的风波都很索金式犀利，喜欢。就是索金确实导得不太行hhh，各方面都很平，没太展现出电影的特点，感觉更适合舞台剧？超爱最后lucy听到i‘m home的走神，以及看电视剧幕后制作过程好有趣啊，编剧们关于女性视角和lucy角色塑造的纠结也很棒（那时好莱坞这么离谱的吗怀孕都不能拍？？
是我没get到的一部艾伦·索金作品了，化妆师怎么可以把妮可基德曼化得这么不像妮可基德曼。
