Oct 3, 1997 · Reviews. U-Turn. Roger Ebert October 03, 1997. Tweet. Only Oliver Stone knows what he was trying to accomplish by making "U-Turn,'' and it is a secret he doesn't share with the audience. This is a repetitive, pointless exercise in genre filmmaking--the kind of movie where you distract yourself by making a list of the sources.
