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.
并算不上很妙，伏笔埋得太明显，显得很蹩脚。但要表达的东西倒挺真诚的，其实这样一个故事放到其他国家必定觉得不真实，但在印度真不好说。
要比《辩护人》要艰难许多~
断断续续看完，印度真是歌舞的国度，一段黑暗的历史，拍的很励志的感觉
从故事角度满分，电影角度上为数不多的缺陷是前半部拖沓，稍许艺术化和套路。
用了巨大的篇幅来做背景铺垫，然后抽丝剥茧，层层推进，稳扎稳打。质量是上乘的，但头确实也是疼的，印度也可以做好的剧情片，但配乐可以不放就还是不要了。还有哭戏，头疼。。
本以为是像《钢琴师》那样的反转悬疑片，结果是《辩护人》这样的人权斗争片。片子本身的节奏没什么问题，正气凛然。不过律师的破案过程过于平顺。不过类似这样的揭露黑暗面的影片，国产的还是应该再多一些。
在歧视正大光明的地方，不会有尊重和平等。法律都覆盖不到，更别谈道德和文明。片尾说顶罪的事情到现在还在发生，人类进步的脚步好慢啊
三星半。题材先行。男主的塑造深得天朝主旋律精髓，过于伟光正，几乎没有任何缺陷，人挡杀人佛挡杀佛，所有问题都很快解决。反倒是低种姓部落的塑造非常真实动人，暴力的呈现非常直接与震撼。
这个简介太不走心了吧
真实人物事件改编，集悬疑、律政、犯罪等几大类型片元素于一炉，俨然可与韩国的《辩护人》媲美，揭露了延续千年的种姓制度对达利特人的戕害，以及背后的官官相护、政治交易、司法腐败等乱象，前现代国家为了维持基层秩序的高压统治，在缺乏足够的刑侦手段时动用刑讯逼供制造冤假错案，随意栽赃迫害贱民，营造高破案率的假象，为警方高层制造跻身政坛的敲门砖，视最基本的人权于无物，作为对立面的正面化身是集良心、智慧、高贵与正义于一身的人权律师钱德鲁，以及被他感召下秉公执法的调查警察，最后真相大白，还远冤死者一个公道。这种编剧方式类似于爽剧的套路，被极度简化成了律师的正义感与邪恶的对决，远非事实真相的全部，但是仅就电影而言，故事曲折离奇，情节跌宕起伏，人物形象鲜明，观感相当娴熟流畅。
正义不会迟到的 不过前提是要争取 故事很好 就是拍摄手法没那么多电影的质感
这部电影也告诉我们，正如《在峡江的转弯处》的那句话，“我们不该忘记自己走过的路，同情过的人，呼唤过的正义，渴求过的尊重，也不会轻易洗去那层名叫共情的底色。”
很多时候看着没有丝毫胜算，人证伪证都是他们的，怎么可能赢？绝大多数人自己就放弃了，而妻子没有放弃，律师没有放弃，这种不屈不挠的精神就是希望所在。
在上级冠冕堂皇要他同流遮羞时他说:
能拍出这样的电影，也不代表这个国家有救，敢来侵略中国领土的话，就给它再来一次双面打印。
前面很棒，后面拖拉，印度电影就是有一个老毛病，就喜欢把电影的篇幅拉这么长。
折磨戏真的是咬着牙看下去，明明没有通过化妆技术把伤口，流血效果进行加强和特写，却偏偏让你震撼。真真是那种姓制度带来的不公与压迫，通过警长挥出去的棍子，还有警界和政府官员沆瀣一气的腐朽，让你感受到了压抑。透不过气的压抑~
一次次陷入绝境，最终还是赢得了胜利，的确很不容易！
感觉是现实意义比较重大，作为一部电影和一个故事来看，影片的叙事节奏过于拖沓，充满了无关紧要的细枝末节，和这样高的评分应该有的影片质量比较不符合。
无论你是达利特还是婆罗门，在外界眼里都是阿三本三，没有任何区别。
