Looks to be entertaining.

Along the line of Joyride. I really enjoyed that film.

This and Disturbia should both empty a few popcorn buckets or two.

Can't be all bad, he does have his own action figure!

I enjoyed the movie for what it was right up until the last 5 minutes. What a crappy ending. They set it up for one more thrill, and then...nothing.

The wife and I just watched this and both really enjoyed it. We liked that they set up the classic "one more thrill" ending but didn't go with the cliche.

Just watched it. I don't think I could be more disappointed. It reminded me of a b-movie that I used to watch as a kid on a saturday afternoon.

I'm not sure why they bothered to have big name actors in it, since there was no acting involved. Luke Wilson is one of the last people I would have chosen for a suspenseful role like this.

The ending seemed like they ran out of film and just decided to call it quits.
