Mentioned as an alternate casting choice for Neil.

Praised for making the young-Indy opening feel like a mini star-making movie and for matching Ford’s mannerisms well.

Called an excellent young performer whose work aged especially well.

Praised as delightful comic relief and a missed opportunity for more screen time, with sadness about his career and early death.
