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.
What would Finch do? He'd feed the dog. I'm gonna feed the dog.
没有谁比汤姆汉克斯更适合这种孤独的独角戏了。一人、一狗、一机器人，配置像极了《我是传奇》，拍出了末日恐惧，也拍出了一抹温情。
最近的美国科幻片越来越不尊重人类智商了，连机器人都能造出来，却不知道听收音机，连别的地方没有臭氧层空洞这个简单的消息都不知道……
对于同类的不信任，以致只愿意对一只狗承担责任，造一个机器人爱自己，是末世宅的慰籍。
合格类型片，只要结尾够感动，观众可以忘记前面光铺垫不点炮一笔带过不深挖的剧情。我比较纠结的点是臭氧层破了气温升高，地表还能不能维持一个大气压，有没有臭氧层的区域这么大温差会不会导致刮大风。浅归浅，还是有它诗意的部分。Jeff的口音太像波拉特了，我看老外也都这么说，我一直脑补Jeff说she is my sister。音乐居然是Gustavo Santaolalla写的，完全没有他以前让他扬名立万的拉丁探戈风格。
这每次世界末日都是主角和狗，那些cat person会不会觉得被冒犯到，从来没见跟猫子survive from the end of the world.. 而且这片子老让我想起Joey拍的那个Mac & Cheese, Finch & Jeff
这片子最适合冬日雪天抱杯咖啡瘫在沙发上漫不经心地观看。汤姆汉克斯与一个机器人一只狗开始末日之旅有种当年《荒岛余生》感觉。可惜Tom叔疲态许多但依然用演技征服我更征服冰冷机器人心
老汤姆两座小金人+金球终身成就奖，这部电影会不会为他再拿下一座小金人？
杰夫拥抱芬奇离去的时候，他明明没有表情，我却看到了他悲伤的不成样子
【2021.58】不太一样的末日电影，虽然创造了你，但你属于你自己
这个机器人让我联想起Athlete的Tourist专辑封面的那个机器，再配一曲里面的Street Map，想想都觉得是个perfect match。或许只是我一个人的臆想，又或许，有人同感吗？
第四条原则并不是让机器人臣服于人类 而是让他成为自己 from jack to Jeff.
狗好烦 一直鬼叫鬼叫，机器人也有点烦，话痨聒噪（最后的明信片上干嘛不画杜威？！虚伪的对狗的爱）
~机器人一诞生就是bug，过于智能了，而且情节、人物关系真不是我的菜。。。
非常不错的科幻公路电影，一人一狗一机器，狗狗演技很棒，机器人最终也变得像人懂得了爱，懂得了友谊，看着有他陪伴狗狗芬奇也就放心了。片尾曲好听
即使最后留下的是机器人和狗
这个机器人让我联想起Athlete的Tourist专辑封面的那个机器，再配一曲里面的Street Map，想想都觉得是个perfect match。或许只是我一个人的臆想，又或许，有人同感吗？
作为一部末日公路科幻电影，我了解每个套路，但都沉浸其中不可自拔，不愿结束不想看结尾。汤姆·汉克斯真稳，米导演真稳，克编剧真稳！不过如果goodyear 狗狗也走了，jeff 会怎样生活呢？抱抱姐夫。
我知道你昨天才出生，但你是时候成熟起来了！
这是一部中国人最能共情的电影。托孤的故事，千年前，就被写进了书里，变成了现在四大名著的一部分，成为中国人的集体血脉。
