U Turn

U Turn is a multiple times remade film with now being Bollywood's turn to remake it after 2018 Samantha's remake. The original came out in 2016.

I didn't understand why this film was remade so many times ? Is the original material way better than what i watched? Does it have better covering of suspense? Could be...need to watch the original to confirm but the Hindi remake version of U Turn was super super super predictable from almost a light years away from the climax. Just 25 mins into the film i could say how people who violated the U Turn rule got killed . In fact i could even predict who the culprit was after the jail killing sequence.

In between the film desperately tries to infuse some horror elements to try divert you from what you predicted but knowing that this is not a horror suspense, such an attempt is futile and that i already knew there would be an explanation in the climax as to how the paranormal stuff was happening with the rule violators .

The only suspense which i felt was hidden well was who actually created that one accident which is shown right at the start. It's only revealed at the very end but that too is revealed in a very unconvincing way like as if it was just appended to the end without any effort .

Everyone is wasted here . Good talents like Priyanshu and Aleya all are wasted although I would say Priyanshu did look good in some parts. The film could have been better if there was some emotional angle developed between the culprit and their deceased family .

Luckily there are no songs and the film is not very long but knowing the facts from far off, you just wish the end come faster .

Overall, it's a predictable film that suspense thriller lovers will definitely not like.

I have no idea why users are trashing this movie in their reviews. This movie is nothing outstanding, but will worth your time for about 1 hr 40 mins. However be cautious to watch it if you have kids along, because of some dialogues in the beginning (which makes sense there has to be something to catch your attention at the opening) and some language and some drug use. I also fall out with other reviewers who says the protagonist is anti Indian as regards culture and norms pertaining to women in Indian society. I'll say wtf just grow up buddies, feminist groups will thrash you the way you are thrashing the movie.

Overall, for a first time viewer, who has no idea that even original versions of the movie exist, and this is a remake....it will keep you entertained with a run time like a Hollywood movie....maybe it wont take long for you to forget the movie...and it wont be nominated for Oscars in foreign movie category...BUT one time watch is QUITE OK....give it a try....this THRILLER will keep you entertained for the entire run time.

I have watched Hindi dubbed U Turn and now watched U Turn remade in Hindi (watched only for 5mins). Reason - U Turn south version was watchable with family. My entire family along with 5-10 yr old girls enjoyed movie. The moment I've started this movie, Alaiya informs her mother that she had sex with many guys without condom. Please someone tell me is it an achievement done by her. When would writers understand that we need good decent movies which can be watched by family. I did not watch movie further as I feel these days web series or movies are unnecessarily getting obsessed with SEX and sex oriented dialogues. Please do not make such movies.

The Screenplay of this Suspense Thriller is Taut and the pacing of the Narration is concise - which will hold your attention till the end. The revealing of the secrets behind the main plot is done smoothly and appealingly!

Loved the Background Music which enhances the Suspense and Thrill in every scene!

No unnecessary sub-plots!

No unnecessary songs (sung by actors, that is)!

No boring moments!

Those here criticising the Maa-Beti Sex talk as against so-called Indian Culture are Sexually Repressed, Prudish hypocrites!

PS: This is not a Supernatural Thriller (as mentioned in Wiki)! But there are some "Ghosts" though! Go and see for yourself! LOL!

Its a great movie nice story if you are looking for a thriller crime then its too good for you. Enough chills and thrills Alaya F is setting bars high did a very nice work. Applauses for post production and the director. Still he fails to engage audience to the predictable story. Priyanshu also played his lead role very nicely. Still there were somethings missing that was unable to engage me that much. Alaya F holds the film together with right emotions other were able to fit in their characters very nicely with less efforts It was a thriller movie hence song did not made that much impact.

Been fictional yet it says "Inspired by true events"
