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.
开场的歌舞和光影很惊艳，然后是一段平缓的麦肯齐求学受排挤的过程。到了夜晚奇幻的部分，麦肯齐和安雅的“镜像”处理的很巧妙，配合着色调和光影在舞蹈中两个人在一镜里频繁切换，仿佛时光在过去与现在不停的穿梭。至此影片除了那些old school歌曲和60年代的英伦场景，再无惊人的亮点。安雅饰演的傻白甜明星梦的设定不管是过去还是现在，注定是一场悲剧的娱乐圈的血肉史。而麦肯齐现实这条线直至影片过了三分之二还依然在铺垫悬疑感，自始至终的把人设往精分的方向引导。最后两线的交叉趣味性越来越低，结局也差强人意，确实没想到，但也没惊喜感。影片虽然有灵异现象还算不上恐怖片，主要以悬疑为主，惊悚成分除了那些无脸男，黑人小哥也贡献了一份力。
前半段大赞，精致的表现主义，具象女性视角的心理恐惧，色彩氤氲镜像折射，把不同时代的两个女性形象的交互玩转表达到出神入化，出色的服化道流光溢彩，贴合的复古配乐神来之笔，后半段急转直下，心理具象变超自然灵异事件，女主心智骤降，反派立场摇摆不定，文本出现空洞，男性群像群魔乱舞，表现对极端男权的尖刺和反向掌控，早先的视听色彩沦为空洞的形式主义，一切的铺垫和发展动机，到最后显得毫无意义，观众对整个故事的真实感受和理解，也因为这些通篇塞满形式和概念的奇观以及三流收尾，受限困惑因此一头雾水，摸不着头脑的大团圆结局以及敷衍的服装设计秀场画下句点，多少有点崩盘和智障。★★
养眼的复古时尚MV，“前程似锦女孩”的同病相怜，凶杀为灵感的时装秀本是个不错的点子，但影片中这种直白复制远不如去看看McQueen的开膛手杰克和Highland Rape秀。
画面和构图兼具美感和冲击感，多处巧妙的运镜和适配的歌舞音乐都是极致的视听享受，同时复刻上世纪六十年代星光璀璨，弥漫耀眼的时尚歌舞圈，故事核心却是一个极具悲剧性的主题，充满巨星的梦想但只能在无尽的现实牢狱中一遍遍重复阶层的欲望侵害，这个社会不是靠自己却是靠关系。可惜这个故事还是不够精彩，后期的反转不算震惊，警察角色的单薄和不够自洽的人物行为逻辑，不过依旧展示了一个很有野心的电影风格，埃德加赖特始终是我很欣赏和喜欢的导演，两位女主也是全片的亮点之一，安雅饰演这种风情美艳具有人性特色的角色真是再合适不过了
好看。不是铅黄。但居然做到了比铅黄还蠢。边缘群体意识昭然若示，但这种低级的概念包装却只不过凸显了内容和形式的双重虚伪。
警察死得好冤……剧本太弱了 情感转折太生硬 演员演技太稚嫩 母女命运神秘的连接似乎直接被放弃了 隐喻不够巧妙 视听上前半段配上音乐把青春片的老套桥段拍得很有趣很精致 到了高潮却平庸到难以忍受 不过看到亡灵畏惧Sandie还是很爽 Sandie安静坐在大火里很美
以恐怖悬疑片的形式，来包装一个怀旧片，满片的六十年代歌曲，像极一个大MV。而贯穿全剧的各种元素，就是一部可笑的大杂烩，更是令人生厌。片中有一句台词还不错：旧时代伦敦的味道，已经渗透到每一堵墙壁之中。确实。
这个故事告诉我们，有了幻觉或者产生幻象，一定要去医院看精神科，不要拖/ATJ真的好美
埃德加赖特大概很喜欢台阶擂台 歪小子最后的boss对决也是这样
最不喜剧的一部莱特，也是最不喜欢的一部莱特。剪辑、摄影、表现手法在线甚至有所突破，依旧难掩剧本和人物的稀碎。所以观感十分分裂，俗套又新颖，说是爆米花商业吧，又不如 babydriver 要素多。虽然很爱莱特，但他真的驾驭不了「大作」。
前半段很有ALL THAT JAZZ的潜质，且因为前面太抓人导致后面画风转变让人觉得龙头蛇尾。不过Edgar Wright的Visual还是很值得一看，McKenzie和Anya也是双厨狂喜了。
上世纪60年代年轻女孩x现代初到伦敦的女孩，设定上女性特有的共鸣，以及每个场景的闪回过渡都十分丝滑，感觉情节紧凑也设计得很好，结局也有意思，感觉超出了预期。
好莱坞成熟过头的炫技式女性主义复仇题材类工业电影产品
中国式的灵异事件，不同的是人家拍的怎么就这么高级这么艺术呢。。最后的反转也是一个不错的一翻。加一星。。桑迪代表着60年代英国？看着辉煌，实则千疮百孔。桑迪即是凶手，也是被害者。
视觉效果拉满，霓虹灯光下的安雅太优雅，美死了。拉她入地狱的人成了鬼魂，妄图寻找帮助，所以也是鬼魂拉她回到复古的60年代。而真正在地狱中生活的她，一直活到了当下，也难逃变成鬼魂。悬疑片吧算，一点也不恐怖。
色彩、画面感挺好，没想到后半部分会彻底变成怨灵复仇恐怖片，Edgar Wright真的很用心想要吓观众😅 在看过的他的电影里排最后
文本内容差强人意，风格还有回味的空间。熟悉的埃德加·赖特式转场，不过作为恐怖片，这部电影的剪辑节奏反倒比早期几部慢了许多
视听真不错，全程不同歌曲作为背景音乐，各种场景镜头转换无缝衔接，感同身受的经历60年代女主的故事。对称镜子让两个场景重叠，惊悚感很好，特别是睁眼到现实后，一转折原来还没脱离梦境。最后结尾有反转，但略无味。
『用迷幻的裙装掩盖糜烂的正装』女主学服装设计的，背景也在伦敦... 你要说是《黑白魔女库伊拉》我都信，只不过比迪士尼黑一点点罢了...内核呢就像《前途似“镜”的女孩》+《镜中人》|顺便其中被人津津乐道的“丧尸？” 我觉得更像是那个都市传说《瘦长鬼影》 Slender Man 怪物形象
Edgar Wright新作。前半部分还挺不错的，后面有点崩了，女主神经叨叨的看的很烦。
