In a World 2013


In a World...


     Carol is doing freelance voiceover work and she lives with her father.  Her father thinks it’s time she moved out on her own but she’s not making enough money for rent.  Carol moves in with her sister until she can get more jobs lined up.  Things start to go her way and more jobs seem to be coming in.  She voices for a new movie that will be filmed in four parts and this is a big deal.  The only problem is now her father and his protégée Gustav think they are better for this job than Carol.  Louis runs a sound mixing studio and he offers to help Carol beat out her two opponents.
     This film is an interesting look into the voiceover line of work.  There are some very funny parts but also some cruising along.  Lake Bell is the director, writer and also actor in this film for a triple juggle.  3* (This movie is OK)

93 min, Comedy directed by Lake Bell with Fred Melamed, Michaela Watkins, Lake Bell, Rob Corddry, Alexandra Holden, Ken Marino, Demetri Martin, Fred Melamed, Rig Notaro, Nick Offerman, Stephanie Allynne.

Note:  Imdb 6.8 out
of 10, 92% critic 73% audience on Rotten Tomatoes, Roger Ebert 3 ½*.
