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.
期待值过高，没有很喜欢这一部，这样的parentchute让我脚趾抠出别墅。不过那个devon的名字一出我整个爆笑，最近认识的部门男神也叫这个名字。。。
片子讨论的议题是现在生活里仍然要面对的难题。非常relatable，非常动人。没进院线太可惜了。
看完没别的感受，就是想急着包鸭。如果鸭都这样的话……
一部显然是关于中国女性为家庭牺牲自我个性和欲望的故事。
这选题绝对是99.9%人的遭遇，但这剧情也确实单薄到不是很有说服力……
浓墨重彩刻画少数裔
电子宠物好古老
凑合看完. 老美是想拍熊猫不敢拍,最后换成小熊猫的吧....
可能老外会觉得故事套上传说什么的很新奇，又是发生在加拿大华人身上的故事，在我看来还是挺老套的，小姑娘虽然是亚洲面孔，已经是白人内里，不太能产生共鸣。
清新脱俗又平易近人的动画电影，关于我们心中的野兽，关于文化和禁忌，关于身份认同，都在我们和父母那深深长长的爱里了。
我发现这电影对于套路台词的理解和展示最为贴切，我终于明白那些台词到底是啥意思
从追求母亲的认同到自我个性的觉醒，这就是青春~
苏格拉底说，认识你自己，能变成熊猫超酷的。但毕竟还是一个讲鸡汤的合家欢，DNA里的家、孝、父权带来的压迫、控制将世代传承，生生不息。何时我们才能真正做到尊重个体？
包宝宝的起点太高了 ，导演也确实了解中国的原生家庭，但问题是最后的和解完全和包宝宝不一样的重回了低龄化，还有点可惜。
三星半。题材和结构很有趣，但台词不够精彩，功利的“踩点”感太强，且过分正确而折损了趣味。还有，只有我觉得这个男妓毫无吸引力吗？他讲话好像在竞选社区领导啊，真是倒找钱都不想跟他做。
期待过高了，反而不惊艳
我的熊猫我做主！我的青春我做主！我的人生我做主！东方女性的母女和解之道。
在文化和传统的祠堂重压之下，如何变得步态轻盈？石之予的答案是：绕过父亲的阐释，与祖先直接对话。
有点硬，但换个角度想，一些东西为什么会成为“刻板”或许是有道理的。最共情的地方竟然是追星现场……我也好想看线下演唱会啊淦
中国式家长，很可怕
