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.

老狗的故事真是迷人，故事老套但还是挺好看的。
最喜欢的四场戏 出版商处互呛带出写作与评论处境 / 成名重逢戏 will she get her own poems too？/演员女爵会面/ 两次读诗对照 /Q：删掉小说对照组，只剩下想当诗人却坠落深渊的那条线。绝对不是什么良知沦丧的成长故事或者道德剧，一面像是“后法国大革命时代”的新闻职人剧，另一面则是一个关于乡下人进城追梦未果的最后纯真曲。/把阶级至上丑恶社会拍得更梦幻且更虚假，后大革命时代保皇党与自由派斗成一团，深陷其中的男主角摸不清时势，既展现自由派的贪婪嘴脸，亦勾勒保皇党权谋算计，贵族贫民农工戏子婊子记者文人全都深陷其中，无人脱身。/故事背景虽是后法国大革命时代，假新闻、暗盘交易、政治运作、偶像吹捧、评论、新闻与资产阶级合谋，以古喻今，巴所要鞭笞所要讪笑所要悲悯所要贱斥的依旧成立
扎实的名著改编，是这个时代稍微缺乏的电影样态，因为它意味着工序复杂、一丝不苟的电影创作，全部都需要以超职业化的耐心去迎对时间的绵延。服化道摄显示出大师的水准，至少是在文本留有不多的缝隙里尽力以艺术的追求。我唯一不满的是标题，太直白以至于剧透了一切。令我在观看的过程中，即使是在人物的巅峰时刻由于想象得到必然的结局而怀着惴惴之心。觉得故事不太好看，可能是因为人物是被时代推着走的，人物被必然到来的命运推着走，名著总是承载太多，一下子我们眼见他起高楼，眼见他楼塌下，毫无悬念，又不甘心。
三星半；巴尔扎克名著改编，故事截取了小说的大部分内容，讲述得很流畅，镜头语言也比较丰富。演员表演、镜头运用还是体现了新时代的美学风格，比较接近好莱坞的商业大片，华丽有余、沉淀不足，原著中对印刷业和当时大的历史背景刻画在影片里基本没有体现，这也是商业作品和巴尔扎克小说的最大不同之处
开头乡间部分诗意盎然，中间部分平白。
Lucien是法国19世纪的一位充满抱负的年轻诗人。他离乡别井，告别以印刷为生的家族前往巴黎碰碰运气。在这座五光十色的城市裡，Lucien意识到自己来到一个充满谎言，一切以利益主导的世界。在巴尔札克的人间喜剧里，政治、感情、名气、灵魂... 万事也皆可买卖，每名 记者都变成了大作家。Lucien尝试爱，尝试挣扎，尝试在一切幻象中求存。
第一次看觉得很嘲讽，后来回味：为什么世界就不能是一个懵懂热情的乡下少年所想象的那样直接而美好呢？
路西安，毁就毁在了他是一个诗人，单纯而经受不住诱惑，低估了人性。却也是罪有应得
唏嘘不已，确实幻灭，巴尔扎克的原著应该非常扎实
电影都是拍当下的，所以很难不开脑洞，太共情了。配乐很不错，看完得去翻原著了。
不知道誰翻譯的字幕⋯今天出來SRT字母了，由於名著改編，必須先來一牙三星。剛開始觀看。
并没有看过原著，还是鼓起勇气来把这部两个半小时的片子看完了。完全不闷，比想象的好看。讲的是一个年轻的外省诗人随贵妇情人进入巴黎、被丢下于是转行做小报记者、借助各路朋友敌人摸爬滚打逐渐声名鹊起、企图重新获得贵族头衔最终彻底幻灭的经历。复辟时期的巴黎这个宏大的历史画卷表现得非常迷人：剧院、报纸、出版人、富商、贵族、王室之间的各种勾当，寥寥几个场景就展现地一清二楚。对话非常辛辣（应该是巴尔扎克的功劳）让人印象深刻。此外导演应该是有意加了一些指射当下的元素吸引观众。
上百年来，作者反映和揭露的残酷而复杂的现实社会问题却依然存在
神枪手匪徒亨利·麦卡蒂妻子死后与儿子怀亚特独自在俄克拉荷马州切克沙镇从事农业养殖猪。1906年一天，妻子的哥哥艾尔·霍布斯过来帮忙，艾尔走后，父子屠宰猪，这时远处走来一匹母马且马鞍有血迹。于是循着血迹找到一昏迷受伤的男子，旁边有手枪和装满钱的皮包意识到是劫匪。救走男子后第二天去找医生且途中遇到3个寻伤者的骑警萨姆等3人。亨利回家，伤者称是堪萨斯州贝克斯特斯普陵镇警察，而3个骑警是假的。于是亨利赶走萨姆等人。萨姆让达根监视亨利，但夜间达根袭击亨利被打死。第三天萨姆绑架了艾尔并从镇上雇了几个枪手。萨姆开枪打死艾尔，亨利愤怒还击将萨姆等人一一打死。替柯里包扎伤口发现其胳膊有囚犯烙印而被柯里开枪击倒，怀亚特开枪打死柯里。原来黑警柯里与萨姆匪徒一起合伙打劫银行，萨姆欲杀柯里灭口时，柯里抢走了钱袋……
中规中矩吧，小说原著里那些枝节但很重要的剧情与人物都砍掉了，故事变得紧凑，但这样一个巴黎梦碎的故事也挺普通的。
作为电影或作为文学改编都乏善可陈，但凭故事性本身就值三星了。不知是打光还是因为对巴黎太熟悉，整个氛围有一种塑料感，没有历史质感
你有才华，你有梦想，现实需要你的才华，但不要你的梦想。怀揣着文学梦的单纯的人，因为生活放下自尊虚心求教，学着变坏，学着报复。最后还是要抱团，利益永远至上。但其实你还有才华，你曾经也有过了最美的爱情。大家爱的不是你的才华，当你的才华让别人害怕的时候才是才华也是很讽刺。男主轮廓好英俊。喜欢卡洛琳，夫人是好是坏到最后都没分清，或者只是自私吧，我以为很难看的文艺片，竟然意外很好看，都停不下来
“我想到了所有那些在觉醒之后，必须找到内在力量的人。”根据巴尔扎克同名小说改编的电影《幻灭》，一个乡村诗人在巴黎的从向往到挣扎和走向幻灭的经历。1996年出生的青年演员瓦赞出色表演，为影片增色加分，旁白的切入，让你又慢慢记起大师原著中那些经典的文字……
人生没有浮华过，何能觉醒
