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.
但这新瓶装旧酒只停留在了“装了就行”，也不考虑加入一些深处这时代的思考和变化，原版怎么来，这版还怎么来。
歌舞部分竟然被压缩至此，绝大部分叙事通过常规方式表达，这点在我看来算是加分项，尤其是不能保证演员唱功的前提下。不过女主演的唱功好棒哦！难怪找她来演白雪公主！可惜中后段不管是布景还是叙事又有点回归舞台剧的感觉，变得有点古怪，最后的结局也是显得很戏剧化。总体还算不错的一部音乐剧电影吧，可能我本来就对这个剧本无感……男主94年的已经这么多主演了🐮🍺
★★★☆ 我對1961年的經典版其實就沒有那麼喜歡，《羅密歐與朱麗葉》的故事被改得很沒意思，而且拍得只見故事不見人，但是我喜歡這一版，讓我看到了些許人。你永遠可以相信Steven Spielberg的調度能力，將整個故事更加電影化，不僅是musical而且是cinema，在保留有黃金時代歌舞片味道之餘，又注入了活力，更加自由，更加輕盈，當然男女主角的選角和表現令人難以滿意，更可惜的是改編還是保守了些，沒能有更加當代的表達，不過即便有著各種不盡如人意之處，卻也是《愛樂之城》之後我最喜歡的一部歌舞片了。
真的只能给个技术分了，完全摸不着头脑的改编，选角也有很严重的问题。Anita确实是最好的，拿到奥斯卡最佳女配实至名归了。斯皮尔伯格感觉变身美利坚张艺谋……
斯皮尔伯格尽力了。。。原IP就一般到不行，美国人的情怀吧。打开6次才看完，真的boring。Anita唯一亮点了。
Spielberg and his endless budget only make the film visually appealing, but the old chemistry is missing. One of the drawbacks is the altered storyline does not make sense; the second half entirely lacks focus. Not even mentioning the overloaded autotune. It’s good that they cast real Hispanic actors. Rita Monroe is still killing it!! (She is absolutely terrific, but her role in the remake is a stretch. )
在法国文化中心看完了这部德国电影，《最终处决》。看整部片子的过程中一直在想，人类通过人为地监禁、处罚、设定规则，给自己的同类带来的痛苦，如果具象地转化为实体，应该是一个不可估量的庞然大物。
还是没能超越老版，老版里导演的调度堪称一绝了，斯皮尔伯格的导演能力毋庸置疑，但他并没有选择在调度上用力，反而选择了更流行化，更青春片的拍法，可能老导演到了这个年纪，已经不需要去证明什么了，干好行活就行。这是一个毫无必要的翻拍，既然拍法还是老版的美学思路，故事上也没有能移植到当下时代的新东西，会让你切身体会到所谓的经典和落后于时代的俗套只在一线之间。
前半段过于糟糕。这个电影的调色真的是瞎搞。服装过于混乱。作为歌舞片甚至歌舞也很一般。失望。
对原版音乐剧乃至上一版电影都谈不上有多大的好感，个人心目中最佳的《西区故事》或者说“罗密欧与朱丽叶”的现代演绎还得属费拉拉的《中国女孩》，而在现如今这一版的正反打镜头中甚至还出现了穿帮，但即便如此还是为斯皮尔伯格的执念所打动，到了这个位置与年龄，任何一个在创作上依然保持善良与纯真的童心的导演，都难免开始回想自己的年轻时代，对斯皮尔伯格来说，对过往的怀念不仅仅是《西区故事》，还有《无因的反叛》、詹姆斯·迪恩与马龙·白兰度等等，于是观众并非只是看到了一部翻新的老作品，更是看到了其中属于一代人记忆深处的美好，他们将曾经的梦在当下还原，分享自己的喜悦外也再次播撒下启蒙的种子，而我们发现明年斯皮尔伯格的新作叫做《造梦之家》，讲述的是他的童年。舞会斗舞、废屋夺枪、仓库对决三场戏最为惊艳，女主表演太差了。
电影本身不管是服化道还是摄影、剪辑、配乐、调度都十分精彩（但是应该很难得奖…）是那种有的地方精彩到可以忘记整体瑕疵的程度。
比我想象的好，场面调度很漂亮，几个重要的群舞场面也都还算满意，当然似乎也没有胜过原版。WSS有个致命的缺陷，就是男女主角极度缺乏魅力，这一版的这个问题甚至更为突出，这也是我最不满意的部分。唉，谁会不喜欢哥哥嫂子呀！
★★★☆一直以来看歌舞片，都是希望歌舞场面快进到文戏，唯独这部相反。
还不如让tick tick…boom提名Oscar BP
嫂嫂你可以教一教女主什么叫下一个更乖吗？
再也不相信豆瓣评分了，真的很好看啊！！！
斯皮尔伯格就是那种永远不会出错的导演，确实是好莱坞电影教科书，但也难免就……没意思……
警察对女主说“哥哥被杀了，你一定很难过吧？”的时候，我差点没笑出来。男女主表演和歌舞太糟糕了！男主从头到尾就一个表情！最后被毙了竟然有一股莫名的爽感！影片的舞美、摄影、服装都很出彩，尤其是一众百老汇配角们的精彩歌舞秀，Anita最出众，原版Anita的出演也是惊喜。当作是斯皮尔伯格对心中经典的一次任性的致敬就好；有些片段改的还挺有趣，但总体就是一副华丽的皮囊。倒也没期待能拍出什么花样来，so除了男女主以外，基本符合预期。还有Talia Ryder到底演谁？找半天没找出来……
没有感动只有尬，男女主身高型号差距大到时时出戏，没有任何荷尔蒙可产生，除了女二演技在线，整部影片就是一场灾难，还为了迎合政治正确硬加一个跨性别角色，真是够了！又浪费两个半小时
英语和西语的台词不只是文化的碰撞而是一场战斗，和对空间、对女人、对骄傲的争夺一般无二。在街上行进、唱歌（包括国歌）跳舞是空间的一种占用形式，而叙事的推进是时间的占用形式，这很distribution of the sensible。波多黎各的多层的大裙子穿着跳舞特别好看，尤其是如此蓬松累赘，却被女舞者牢牢掌握着它的位置和形状，在舞蹈中未尝不是一种处于力量上风的挑逗。除了男女主角那愚蠢且不令人信服的爱情，这是一部能够一观的片子。
