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.
摄影服装和美术视觉方面就像入口就化的牛奶巧克力，你可以相信《水形物语》的导演在这方面的绝对质感。但除此以外真的就像一滩烂泥，又长又臭又稀巴烂。故事完全没有让人看下去的欲望，如果不是几个奥斯卡戛纳影帝影后级的卡司阵容，这片子绝对就崩了。我不喜欢这种明明不复杂但却搞得看似特别深邃和拿捏的劲儿。当然，演员没有提奥斯卡个人奖项也是有道理的。剧情限制了演员的发挥，太拿架子了，看的让人不舒服。
我目前最喜欢的一部陀螺，一部彻头彻尾的Spooky show in a carnival。Cooper最后的嘶吼比小李子近年来的花式乱吼加起来都有感染力loll
陀螺何苦又何必翻拍这。前面不到一小时的马戏团部分显然是最好的，各种奇幻蒙太奇轮番亮相，但作为铺垫又是冗长的，两年后的叙事迅速泄气，大魔王也无法救场，而且跟鲁妮玛拉的对手戏就几句话就没了？定位有偏差，想制作一部古典惊悚黑色电影，但显然小题大做，也不适合如今时代（除了美学）。
有点无聊 说起来我最近才知道Rooney mara和纸牌屋的Kate mara是亲姐妹
标准讽刺小品，老梗新拍，好人坏人都虚伪，有的结果来得早，有的结果来得迟。巴登这种角色随便演。
前面在嘉年华的部分特别喜欢，让我想起了当时看《巴斯特斯克鲁格斯的歌谣》的快乐。充满文艺色彩又满足猎奇。后半部分的故事逐渐拖沓，把时长拉到两个半小时，有点太长了。
个人是挺喜欢托罗的美学的，但实在没什么化学反应噻……属于托罗的那part都有故弄玄虚之嫌。
好在铺垫够长，马戏团的戏整整用了一小时，享受极了。不好在离开马戏团后情节有点普通，和铺垫相比收尾太快了。万万没想到在大魔王和小白兔竟然就一场对手戏。
无效翻拍。唯一大概就是把1947年版最后因为电检问题改掉的结局完成了，Bradley Cooper演得却狠不好。虽然我没指望他能胜过Tyrone Power，但实在是……还有你们老美现在电影长度为啥纷纷有赶超行定勋的趋势？！毫无必要。
其实完成度还可以，几个老戏骨演技也在线，惊艳的是geek的命定前后衔接，唯一不太好的就是男主前半段没啥台词，显得有点傻
从看戏的变成了唱戏的，从旁观的变成了参与的，从二流戏子变成了下三流的怪物。偷鸡不成蚀把米，你欲情，我故纵。瞒天下所有人之心，藏不住低俗下烂的把戏。穿梭于世界上如行尸走肉，只为可怜的一点点爱，一点点名，一点点利。陀螺美学一次大行为爆炸，把戏与心理斗法过程好好看。玉兔cp只是个幌子，不过全方位被库珀帅到惨绝人寰，快来🌿我。
美术摄影特效都到顶了无可挑剔，可在电影内容上唯有鲁妮·玛拉的部分有点儿费里尼[大路]那意思，马戏团那段少了德尔托罗理应有的恶趣味不是很满足，中间库珀和布兰切特的“连档模子”段落也拍得甚是无趣，就和用的这版《Stardust》一样，离抒情很远，怪味有所展露，却又不尽兴；“But you’re not as hard to read as you think, lady.”
复古精致，视觉的饕餮盛宴！骗中骗、蛇蝎美人、西装革履的斯文败类、一场阴谋以及一段危险关系，能看出陀螺对好莱坞黄金时代的缅怀与执念。也许是“不合时宜”的电影，但也是如今这个充斥着快餐文化的时代所需要的电影。带着五味杂陈的心情写下这段感受，但也许再过几分钟我就只在乎《奇异博士2》《蜘蛛侠》们到底能不能上？！
还行啊 虽然很快猜到了结尾 可不正是结尾让这片升华了一下子吗？人生起起伏伏 下坡路嗖的一下太快 跌倒谷底 才知道爬回去 怕是不可能了。服道化美美美 就是cooper的帅气与林风悄然不在了 他曾经帅哭了
知道导演本意是想讽刺伪善的黑心资本家，但是殊不知愿意装装样子走走形式的老板在我们这儿已经算好人了。
三星半，结局烦人反转和结尾，厉害。片名翻译的太傻了
大魔王到底起了个什么作用？很多没有说明白的地方，表达的也比较隐晦。
前后两部分感觉像两部完全不同的电影。虽然看完之后理解了前半段所有的铺垫，但是还是觉得可以做到再紧凑一些，没必要超过一个小时。
今年奥斯卡提名电影都魔怔了似的加片长，复刻黑色电影经典的本片也不例外，陀螺个人的情怀私货更多体现在美术设计和氛围营造上，服化道尽显功力，然而故事却讲得寡淡如水，叙事节奏松松垮垮，情节注水看得沉闷乏味，对社会阴暗面的揭露与控诉如隔靴搔痒，何况留了一大堆隐线却交代得不清不楚，人物线和剧情线都如一团麻一样欠个收拢，一群名角儿加盟的豪华卡司也改变不了时代变了，这类的作品早就没有市场的空间了。
前半部挺有点林奇的诡调感，但影片也因此显得割裂，如果说前半段是主人公必不可少的前史，那么最后的回归又使得后半部分像是个插曲。两部分分别对应两个女性，都着了笔墨，可都太浅，本是两个极富魅力的角色却各自黯淡。括弧式的结局草率得有些敷衍，不过但也真是疯的令人唏嘘。（戒酒宣传片
