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.
前半部分的人物出场和铺垫舞台话剧感较重，中间反转之后可看性强了很多，另一条故事线浮现之后则主题大大的加分，甚至有点动人。最难能可贵的还是针砭时弊的小细节，能看出主创团队的野心，多加一星。
竟然能【在商业片语境下】有意识在讨论“摄影机是什么”，【重申是商业通俗电影语境下】。很多微小的惊喜之处，尤其那句“最可怕的东西是记忆”。提及新闻业的功能，电影的社会意义，对性犯罪的借古喻今，都很勇敢。笑点很多千禧年之后的流行文化梗，挺戳我（
2022.7.18 巴黎夜旅人，一个深夜电台，帮司机提神，给失意人以抚慰，还给了女主一份重新找回自我的工作，给居无定所的小姑娘一个家～不管是美满的还是离异的家庭，温暖的母亲对一个家的支撑和鼓励都太重要了，一个破碎的母亲，不仅重建了自己，也成就了孩子们有了一颗健康温暖的心，被爱着也爱着别人，这才是积极的人生～
電影的本質是一種藝術，在於建立與某一部分人的聯繫，這種聯繫需要是有後味的，所以我會把電影和“拍的片子”作為兩種概念區分開來，因為前者可以讓我回溯到生命中的某個瞬間，不管我是否經歷過，我都擁有了想像的能力。比如這部，就總讓我感覺不知是過去還是未來，坐在地板上透過窗戶看夜晚的霓虹，儘管是在流淚，卻是充滿安全感的氛圍。
回忆起米夏埃尔的影片应该都会带着一层色彩滤镜，《阿曼达》是婴儿蓝，《巴黎夜旅人》是午夜蓝。现在就算是巴黎老太太也不会这么慢地讲话了，他的电影里都是现代陌生的巴黎，老电影熟悉的巴黎。
可能太像那个年代的电影了吧，有点看不下去
开篇十几分钟以为是民国版的报告老板，有点无聊有点弱，后面渐入佳境还有点小惊喜，七分打四星吧！
悬疑和喜剧不易混搭，目前国内也仅唐探系列在此领域颇有所成，没想到刘循子墨处女作便交出不错的答卷。前面喜剧后面悬疑融合得不错，迷影元素不少，反嘲娱乐圈社交、影视圈创作，以及吐槽审查和署名，虽是创作者夹带私货，但并不枯燥。剧本杀风格迎合年轻人，然不失为行之有效的观影驱动力。选角和表演方式也指向更下沉的受众群体，营销跟上来就会小爆。
情感真挚，叙事平缓，中间插了一些档案化的胶卷镜头很是好评。在静静流淌的塞纳河畔，希望我们都能找到心灵的皈依。
毫无期待缺惊喜连连。剧本非常难写，这种悬疑故事层层推进再步步反转，太容易bug满满。但成片的剧作和叙事都挺完整的。尤其是结尾处理的极高级，心向阳总是好的。张本煜才是妥妥男一，邓家佳稳的全片两色一抹。
1980s 法式的浪漫松弛，复古而梦幻，关于破碎与衰老，夹杂着一些私人情绪。夏洛特甘斯布越发优雅，面对生活的困境如此坦然，爱意与温暖四处流动着。八十年代的巴黎，蒙着一层复古泛黄的滤镜，美得精致而充实，让人深深着迷……
“你知道最可怕的是什么吗？
70/100 80年代童话般的午夜巴黎，因深夜电台而感情交织的人们，在悲欢离合之间互相藉慰互相取暖。电影营造出来的复古虚幻氛围特别特别美，尤其是巴黎的街景实在是拍摄得太漂亮了，看得出来导演编剧对这个城市浓厚的爱。

- 那大家能看明白吗？ - 不一定能看明白。但咱们这部电影一定能留下来，咱们做了应该做的事，问心无愧。
兩處最觸動我，第一個是女主找完工作後在大街上似笑非笑又坦然地笑一步步向前走著，那種壓抑了許久突然看到希望的樣子太動人了，第二處是四個人聽Joe Dassin抱在一起的時候，啊！真好。
密室够不上本格派，表现张力难称社会派，
这种强行装深刻强行反转真的是要命，一群尬出天际的演员自说自话。
好久没看到这么美这么舒缓的电影了，有好多击中内心的片段，要好好珍藏这部电影
那些际遇是这样的奇妙「unusual and vulnerable」
