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.
虽然我喜欢看黄政民肉搏，
紧张感略有不足，并且也没有太多的对手戏。还是不如华仔版的精彩
让黄政民饰演自己效果不好，影片完全把黄政民圣人化，在战神丁青附体的情况下，又没有杀死任何一个人。对底层人的刻板描写，对上层人高大全形象的塑造，完全恶臭。
重温完肉山黄政民和千代的经典对决，突然想看正版的片。几个绑匪的选角差点意思，电视剧型表演。李瑜美真好看
黄叔演技是真的牛，但片子也真的太单薄，实在是达不到4星。新世界的梗遍地开花，太搞笑了🤣朴叔这么喜欢说hey brother，干嘛不干脆叫李小小来客串😂
开头结尾不错，比起大陆版本，里面的黄政民就扮演的黄政民，很有真实感。但是绑匪有点降智，内斗我都有点没看明白。而故事又太个人英雄主义，演员把绑匪都干趴下了？警察都成了陪衬。一个演员智斗可以，但以力破力真的太玄幻了。
从开头就知道质量了，翻拍不成功，还得需要像王千源一样的大恶人形象，完整的故事线
韩国版《解救吾先生》，黄政民原名出演，剧情情节做了部分修改！棒子国的警察办案与实战能力真是有待提高，女绑匪C罩杯，神经质的老大爷，人质自救暴力抵抗绑匪，勇敢无畏！“吴若甫事件”中主犯带的自制手雷，终于在棒子国街头炸响！哦西把！
太抓马，现实感没了，人性的复杂也被打薄了。纯粹在消费黄政民的演员形象。最后进入片场的戏份有意思，可惜只是点缀。
黄政民演着演着就成了之前片子里的颓废警察，最后大喊一声，你们这些废物警察滚一边去，让我来。解救吾先生的角度是警察和匪徒，这个片子基本就是人质和匪徒的大面积特写，全场靠黄政民一角独撑，主题性差一点。

想要拿到赎金，有勇无谋外加内讧肯定是不行的，最重要的是一定要在人质面前蒙面！
黄政民演的挺卖力，就是这故事特别提不上劲儿，有些地方很刻意，反派还都有些脸谱化。
一般都是国内翻拍拍不好韩国的，这次反过来了！情节到演技都是国内版本完胜
演王千源那个角色的小哥全程一个表情，这不行啊，特别是去自首的那场戏，咋回事啊怎么一点胸有成竹的表情都没有，难顶起来了
本土化做的还可以 第一次看到韩警破案如此迅速 有点违和 哈哈哈哈哈
逻辑漏洞太多 剧情幼稚 虽然是男神的片但确实不算好片
我觉得不如中国版的好，中国版偏纪录片，那种真实感更能让人紧张。这一版感觉演员还在戏里
-电影里的警车永远都会来迟一步
整体节奏很紧凑，不过最后部分的剧情设置太中二了！
