    Well played thriller

    Well written screenplay with a social message.. Clean submit.. Well played thriller..

    A rare gem among Kannada movies

    Good Kannada movies are hard to come by. This one alone can move the needle quite a bit to the high side.

    I will not reveal plots. Except for some shaky scripting in the last few minutes, the movie is remarkably watchable.

    A little predictable, but worth a watch

    My first foray into Kannada movies and I'm not disappointed. U-Turn is a movie in the horror/mystery genre that shows the brilliance of simple story-telling and the right casting. All actors played to their strengths, and nothing was overdone. Cheers to Pawan Kumar, the director-cum-writer.

    The movie revolves around a journalism intern, Rachna (Shraddha Shrinath), who is working on a story about people jumping a divider with their bikes on Bangalore's Double Road flyover, by moving loose blocks of concrete. She sees this as a blatant violation of traffic rules, and the loosened blocks are just kept lying on the street, causing problems for drivers, and sometimes fatal accidents. In her quest to get a violator's perspective, she manages to trace an address and pays a visit. This leads to her becoming embroiled in a murder investigation as a prime suspect. From there on, prepare to be hooked into a world of mystery and intrigue.

    Brilliant Mystery thriller and one of the best movie's of 2016

    "It may not be the best from Pawan(director of lucia) but his making style is really good and message was rightly portrayed which makes it a good horror mystery thriller film with social message.'U-Turn' should be watched by everyone for its innovative storytelling and convincing social message on road safety"

    Positives- 1.)Direction and script- Pawan who earlier directed lucia was excellent movie which i rated 5 out of 5 but if i compare with this film then it may not be that great. He was trying to add horror thriller to a social message driven film which may have its flaws but he did a different attempt and i must appreciate him for that. Script was engaging along with direction.

    2.)Shradda srinath , roger narayan and dilip raj- These 3 actors portrayed their roles properly and out of them shradda was outstanding and she was able to bring out those emotions perfectly without any flaws. Roger narayan as inspector was right choice by director. Dilip raj was fine.

    3.)cinematography and edits 4.)Bg score 5.)Message about road safety was rightly conveyed.

    Negatives- 1.)Cliches in second half - First half went with introduction of characters and that was fine. But second half the director's vision of portraying certain elements had flaws and it disturbed the experience. Director could have taken care of that to avoid this type of mistakes.

    2.)Predictability- Because of certain cliché'd scenes it was predictable for audience which spoiled the experience of mystery thriller.

    Is it a must watch? Yes it is a must watch film and it has a great social message. It is a innovative movie on road safety.

    Overall- Despite flaws Its a good film if you check the overall aspect. It could have been better if director had rechecked some scenes to avoid some errors. But its fine if you not go with high expectations. It tells about the mysterious events that occur on the double road flyover with great social message added to it. I recommend you to watch it but without much expectations.

    My rating- 4/5(Brilliant Mystery Thriller and one of the best movie's of 2016)

    Good thriller

    So the beginning of the movie was promising and i was excited to know what happens further on. But somewhere in the middle it was clear that there will be some supernatural powers involved and the plot became predictable. Still there were some twists in the end but they didnt add much tension to the film, mabye the one at the end, which was inspired by a real incident. It was a certainly a decent movie, not perfect, the acting was really good and the camera technique also executed well. For a movie evening with friends or Family this movie is def. a good choice. Between Stuttgart is not nice ;)
