It is safe to say that his role as the lead throughout the comedy movie is definitely a highlight. Scenes such as the one where he and Jordan pretend to sleep after getting caught by or the one where he jumps a great length to save Jordan or the one where he helped the old mechanic man, are highly arresting to watch.
