In A World... (2013) (D: Bell; S: Bell, Corddry, Martin, Offerman)
An underachieving vocal coach is motivated by her father, the king of movie-trailer voice-overs, to pursue her aspirations of becoming a voiceover star. Amidst pride, sexism and family dysfunction, she sets out to change the voice of a generation.

Not sure if that's the kind of thing I'd go see, but the smoothie bit made me laugh.

I enjoyed it.
Can Ken Marino really speak that deep? There was a bit towards the end where he had an awesome voice for the the audition.

This was one of my favourite movies last year - a lot of fun, great dialogue and a really natural feel to it.

just saw this last night and was very pleasantly surprised. i think of Lake Bell as a sexy ugly actress (bc of the nose), but the rest of her is nice. good script, good performances, really enjoyable all the way around.
Netflixed it, but bought it today after the strong liking and desire to see it again and see some extras since rental copy has nothing but previews...

Just watched this one and I really liked it. A nice balance of funny, drama, goofiness, and heart...

I watched this last night and really enjoyed it. Lake Bell is adorable, and it's cool that she wrote and directed this. I especially liked the scenes with her and Demetri Martin. The rest of the characters and supporting cast were all great, too.
I was pleasantly surprised by the little reality check from Gina Davis's character in the restroom at the end, when she told Bell's character that she didn't get the job because she was the best, but because she was a woman, and that it was important for little girls to hear women in the world of voiceovers.
