Actually, I've seen U-Turn (on TV) & thought it was OK - and I'm not at all an Oliver Stone fan. I remember thinking how much like an updated Gold Medal novel it seemed but I had no idea it was based on a novel. It looks like Ridley is someone else to check out. Has anyone here read this talented Mr Ridley's works? Whatcha think?
