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.
第一眼真的很《罗马》 黑白片讲乡愁 但对标未免质量差太多 毕竟罗马也不仅仅讲得这些 表演上小男孩挺灵 喜欢妈妈和爷爷的表演 氮气没什么发挥空间 爸爸的....咱们就是说 没提SAG都是有原因的 KB的电影还是有距离感 我可能体会不到他的电影乐趣了 但好在他自己没在里面演个角色 可能也没有合适的角色吧
北爱尔兰问题只是带过而已，最多算背景，剧情里面说是宗教冲突有些保守了吧！
做作，溢于言表的做作；明明是标榜私人的回忆，却非要不自觉把故事丢进大历史中并试图扩大，从而获得一种参与历史的虚荣，又何必呢？外加做作的影像和音响。只能说是看了卡隆的电影就觉得“我也行了”，肯尼思·布拉纳大概是好莱坞最人缘好也最自恋的导演了。
致留下的，致远游的，致迷失的，致敬回不去的
记录一个时代（政治），一些老片的出现挺让我惊喜：黑白中彩色的电影与戏剧/摄影很不错，一些地方比较做作/仅此，为什么是最佳原创剧本？想不通。
不可抗力皆因沒有想像力，才那麼需要黑白來補救。《羅馬》都能把幾坨屎拍出不明覺厲的形式感。肯尼去到盡也只是把舞台上的彩色，反射到奶奶的眼鏡上，黑白裡帶點彩，搞得這麼初級。
动乱不安却干净和谐的街道，负债累累却整洁温馨的家庭，一切都套上了虚假的滤镜，过度浪漫化的童年，过度美化的历史背景，让真实的痛苦现实反而呈现出一种“为赋新词强说愁”的疏离感。在动荡时代中挣扎的小小个体不得不做出背井离乡的选择，这一深刻主题却被似有似无的乡愁消解殆尽。全片充满了小乔尔布亚式的自我陶醉和不食人间烟火的自我欣赏，把工薪阶层底层家庭拍成如此资产阶级富贵之家，我不能理解。
Go! Go now. Don't look back! 结尾朱迪丹奇喃喃自语目送一家人离去，电影酝酿已久的乡愁也到了高潮。但也许是那段北爱宗教暴乱的历史过去沉重，削弱了主题，特别是从孩子的视角看许多桥段设计过于刻意，太像舞台剧不够自然，感染力欠缺。不过，诗意的摄影加超赞的配乐，以及演员整体在线的演技，还是值得推荐。最后，豆瓣评分这么低，难道观众口味都喜欢国内院线电影了🤮？
2.5。很疑惑这样一部片子是怎么混进奥斯卡最佳影片提名名单的，零碎的剧情在故事层面上就让人无法进入，对1960年代的粗糙还原（试图通过黑白色调来掩盖不足？）也是令时代感尽失，只能靠近乎滥用的音乐来吸引观众的注意。
摄影布景服装表演都相当精致的一部电影，在限定的一个狭小街区里，从小男孩的视角，表现了在爱尔兰那个宗教冲突严重的时代下，留下的、离开的、彷徨迷茫的贝尔法斯特居民们的生活状态。
说到底还是私人情调加分了，问题出在简单的不像回事啊~
同样是家长里短的流水账，这片就显得高大上，父母育儿的教育闪光点最值得欣赏，这才是优秀的电影，再加上范老的插曲，登峰造极
内容撑不起这么高规格的制作。画面很有质感，但从头到尾完全没被打动，只觉得好漫长（结果才一个半小时多…）
Oh Van Morrison. 工作日选择看这个完全是因为时长亲人，意外地挺喜欢的，黑白摄影虽然比不上《罗马》和《冷战》，但质朴的视角更显乡愁（也可能可以少做旧一些细节？）。童言无忌，童稚时无法接受变化，心碎的离开和道别，回不去的是旧日和故乡。
三星。头尾两幕处理的不错，然而第二幕近乎崩塌。黑白摄影和故乡这种私人化的情节处理不由得让人想到卡隆的《罗马》。《罗马》是克制且冷静的，《贝尔法斯特》则滑向了它的反面——肯尼思布拉纳似乎不知何为节制，各种意义不明的琐事和迷影情节拼接在一起，想要在各种程度上表现出他对故乡对个人往事的情感，却最终落入过度的自我陶醉之中。
关于故乡的往事，形式感很强，但是剧作以及视听内核存在很大的问题，摄影和表演还可以，奥斯卡BP就比较难了。
装腔作势地跟拍一段无逻辑的运动，随后的大全景自曝其片场实质，电影小镇级别的置景完全僵死，人物在各种精致构图的钳制下如同木偶。为什么要对标《罗马》？几乎和国产片水平差不多，报奥斯卡之前不如先来春节档走一圈，让大伙看看北爱版《我和我的父辈》
黑白影像在搭景式的街道里被伪装成历史，混乱碎片化的童年记忆在一首又一首过度密集的歌曲里被随意展现在银幕之上，无法感受真实的历史痕迹和拼贴在一起的家庭生活气息，唯独共情的只有死去的那些人们。只有电影是可爱的，又想看一遍《双虎屠龙》了……
私人回忆又不注重故事叙事该怎么建立共情还是需要不断探索的事情/看着美又累 太多设计过的镜头 仰拍 进一步割裂了本来就不强的情感连接 分成短片或许还行 放一起作为长片实在不太行
Jojo Rabbit➕罗马，但只学到了前者的匠气和粉饰太平，拍不来后者的格调和感染力
