What Happens in Miami

This movie is camp at its finest. It is such a purely fun experience with twists at every turn, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. And for the budget that it likely had, the filmmakers did an excellent job.

Some people hold all movies to the same high standards, but you really need to put films into perspective. Tubi Originals are usually made for under $1m, with most of them closer to $500k. The trivia section says this film was shot in 14 days, which leads me to believe it was closer to a $500k budget. That is an enormously tight schedule and budget. You can't compare it to films with multi-million dollar budgets that got months to shoot.

Of course there will be imperfect elements when shooting on that kind of budget and timeframe, but they clearly ran with their limitations and made the best product that they could. You can't criticize a film like this for those things. Really, it's big budget films that we should be more critical of -- When you have all the money and resources in the world, your film should be flawless, but many aren't. On micro budget films it should be a given that there will be some flaws, and that's okay.

This film did an excellent job at creating a fun and dynamic atmosphere, and capitalized well on its budget and limitations. Well done!

This movie had so much potential. The storyline was great but got lost and I don't know even know exactly where it got lost at. The characters changed so much. The actors aren't all that bad I would have to blame all this on the director and the writer. Better yet everyone is at fault, someone should have spoken up and stopped this mess.

I feel like it started off pretty good, not the best but well enough to have been produced. But well into 20 minutes everyone started to change. Especially the missing friend. In the beginning you like her and you can see she is a caring a friend who loves her friends, but everything changes out of the blue, and I guess that's to make you think one of her friends would want her gone, but it was such a drastic change you honestly are happy she's missing.

One of those disposable teen murder dramas making heavy use of flashbacks and time juxaposition to enrich a story which would otherwise appear lightweight. The producers might argue they are breaking new ground, but in fact this sort of arc has been beaten to death in recent streaming series (CRUEL SUMMER, for eg.) The one thing these sorts of stories do offer is a chance for individual actors to shine, and jump-start their careers. WHIM has two standouts -- Annalisa Cochrane as the pending murder victim vamps it to the hilt, continuing a cinematic tradition that goes back to Tuesday Weld in the 1960s. But, for casting directors of the future, Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut is the one to watch. Here she continues to take secondary roles and make them pop (like in PICARD). By the halfway point of the film, it becomes clear to the viewer that she is the "glue" that still holds your attention. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."
