In a world... where those who do voiceovers for trailers are pompous egomaniacs like Hollywood stars and who slap themselves on the back when presenting their own Golden Trailer Awards, hilarity ensues. Witness the spa scenes where the hairy, fat industry king is sitting next to his hairless, tanned, buff protege - the contrast is amusing. Lake Bell in her capacity as writer-director-star bears watching. But, why in the world is her thirty-something character played like some hyperkinetic, flayling-about, awkward 16 year old who sports a wardrobe from an Annie Hall rummage sale? And why in this world do 30 and 40-year olds machine-gun their words and sentences as if they've received their vocal lessons from motor-mouth Jesse Eisenberg? Yes, I'm annoyed because some of the dialogue was unintellable. Nevertheless, I look forward to Ms. Bell's next project. In a world of any justice she will produce films that are even better... than this.
