Well, I'm just reporting in. I liked it very much as well. A really good performance by Jason playing the put upon younger brother but showing he was actually more responsible and mature than the others. He truly came into his own regarding the car, even though stupid big brother Scott got in the way. I loved CJ! The goodguy/badguy charm!
But Jason was the standout. He was cute, funny and his acting was excellent!
And his bathroom scene was memorable! I imagined him as a vulnerable Josef for a little bit!
As I said to my movie buddy, the film in a lot of ways seemed a cross between John Carpenter's 'Christine' and Steven Speiberg's 'Duel'.
He agreed.
It also had a very similar scene in it to one in 'Duel'
