Storyline Spring break in Miami is the scene. It's where surf-drenched guys cruise girls in bikinis and raucous parties rule day and night. It's the perfect time and place for three young women from Texas and a trio of college guys from Pennsylvania to find adventure and maybe even fall in love. In a Texas dive bar, Kelly is singing her heart out to a few local yokels when her best friends Kaya and Alexa try and tempt her away for some fun in the Florida sun. It's an easy sell--even for the cautious Kelly - and the three head for Miami. Making their way to the same destination is the "Pennsylvania Posse": college students Justin, Brandon, and Eddie. Justin and Brandon are smooth-talking party promoters, while Eddie's primed to meet Lizzie, the cyber dream girl he's been e-mailing for months. Miami Beach, beating with a rhythm all its own, is teeming with beautiful people...

User Review
I don't want to live anymore.
Rating: 1/10
And I only watched the first 25 minutes. It is inconcievable to me that
anyone could make a film this hopelessly, endlessly, mind-meltingly
bad. This is not a bad movie - it's a war crime. Somehow the producers
actually managed to cast supporting players bad enough to make Kelly
Clarkson and even the talent free Justin Guarini seem good by
comparsion.
The alleged "choreography" ammounts to nothing more than frantic
flailing of limbs. Accents come and go with wild abandon. The songs
are, to put it charitably, forgettable. I'm surprised "American Idol"
judge Randy Jackson isn't credited as a writer, because the dialouge is
that witless and badly phrased.
