Anyone Else But Me highlighted how many talented collaborators Joel Haver has gained throughout his years as a consistent YouTuber. While viewers will recognize plenty of the cast members from several viral online shorts, this satirical crime story of mistaken identity, false personas, and acting ambition, this feature-length release felt grander in its scope and intentions. With Blake Rosier as an actor who took a class exercise a little bit too seriously, this DIY movie progressed with plenty of tension and suspense as he's embroiled in a hostage situation after presenting himself as a multi-millionaire Bitcoin investor.

With an enjoyable mix of comedy, crime, and some self-aware humor about the vapid aspirations and insecurities of wannabe actors, Anyone Else But Me felt far more scripted and mapped out than a lot of Joel Harver's other, more improvised work. The theme of overlapping identity continually crops up as Rosier's character finds himself increasingly out of his depth as kidnapped try to extorte him for a $2 million dollar ransom. Overall, this was a highly accomplished release, especially considering the mind boggling tight time schedule Haver was under trying to make and release 12 feature films in one year.
