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.
虽然没有出现鬼魂，但尤金妮的表演同样让人不寒而栗，看完好气Geneviève没有和他们一起走，但后来想想可能是因为她放不下疯人院里的可怜女人们，似乎只有她对这些被家人抛弃的女性怀有同情，另一个负责隔离的对男医生唯首是瞻，拿疯女人的痛苦向他们邀功
家族成员的心理问题和深层忧虑全归咎于女性家长的“控制欲”与“逼得太紧”，这种父权诡辩经典得让人白眼(家庭不圆满、孩子不幸都是女人「天生」控制欲的错)。而被影片略去的事实是：这一位被指责为根源所在的女性家长是如何在丈夫缺席的情况下，以一己之力组建家庭并带大了三个孩子。
才知道罗兰已经导了好几部影片了，这一部开篇展开很缓慢，结尾却结束很快，怪怪的。故事很简单，一个女孩能和鬼魂交流，被父亲送进精神病院，然后护士亲身体会到女孩的能力，帮她逃出精神病院，就完了，没节奏没起伏啊，6.6
引人入胜，尽管有一些单薄性和随之而来的可预见性
很压抑的气氛也很新鲜的题材，到底谁是正常人谁是疯子，被几位‘德高望重’的教授妄下定论，信鬼邪便是疯子，女人的命运被撰在男人手里。细思极恐，可恨可悲，幸好结局还算治愈。但事实是，不疯魔，不成活。
掙脫父權社會的枷鎖⋯⋯Nous sommes libres, nous sommes fortes, et nous sommes éternelles.
家族里的每个人都拥有魔法，没有魔法的我就成了异类。当魔法逐渐消退，拥有魔法的人终于开始恐慌。虽然我不能搬运石桥和驴子，无法让丛林花草焕发生机，不会和动物对话，无法让天气变晴。但我可以预知大厦将倾，魔法失效，我愿意为了拯救家族去勇敢冒险，最大的魔法是面对未知世界的勇气和对家人的爱。
家里所有人的伤人和洗白，都在莫名其妙的一瞬间，唱首歌就完事儿。家如果是原罪的话，为什么我们还需要要不离不弃？可以看看《为何家会伤人》的案例。如果不是歌还行，应该只有1星。
剧情一般。看点是唱段的动画设计，单独拎出来都是不错的mv，不过唱段水平也一般。色彩运用很不错，很有热带风味。
一家人都有魔法的时候排挤她，合照都不带她，结果小姑娘还一心为家，又受气又挨骂，太气人了，这难道不是樊胜美吗？一人受苦，全家升天。
配乐就是布鲁诺，躲在角落里无声无息地修补这部电影的裂缝。
跟画上的魅惑不一样看过本片你会对欧洲女性的裸体感到反胃 即使是女主那样秀美的脸庞躯体也是枯槁更不用说臃肿的老妪 与教科书或照片上戴着金丝眼镜的学者不一样治疗精神病的医学家是如此因循守旧并且在圈子里吹捧 结局只是一个人的牺牲换来另一个人的自由
1/10@川沙大光明 座椅还蛮舒服的，及格拉美唱唱跳跳弘扬老一套家族价值meh （反完美主义 / peer pressure/ 回归平凡之路这类议题都是蜻蜓点水）最好听是西语歌，画面仍想象力及格但框架中庸，引起兴趣的反而是政治背景
前半段设定还不错，结尾越来越拉跨，这电影就不应往合家欢PG-13方向走。
动画片，给小朋友看的。。。不需要你们成人世界那么复杂的分析。。。简单多好。有几个场景印象特别深刻：女主和壮姐姐得对话那段；女主去追邋遢哥那段；还有女主尴尬去找花姐姐那段，尤其她房间里，美极了。
故事与《寻龙传说》（Raya and The Last Dragon）很像，区别就是一个在哥伦比亚，一个在东南亚。。。但是主题依然具有代表性和教育意义，特别让人们关注那些天生可能有缺陷或不那么优秀的人，也许可以找到其他潜质，继续发光放热。色彩丰富，歌曲热烈，很有哥伦比亚文化特色。
关于女巫的真真假假已不重要，重要的是对女人的圈养规训和猎杀，简单的故事，黑暗中的扶持 启蒙和希望。
梅拉尼真是才貌双绝啊（虽然本片中扮相略老），自编自导本片，还是女主之一；背景和服化道都很到位，配乐虽然只是简单的大提琴奏鸣曲，但和背景相得益彰，和悲凉的氛围很配。
这个故事好奇怪啊，到底是要魔法还是不要魔法啊？？但美术还是绝美，音乐也好。
