Hello, I'll be reviewing this. At first glance, there are some issues with the article that should be fixed:

  • There is 1 CN tag in the article as well as some unsourced parts.
  • I'd suggest rearranging the sections per MOS:FILM; right now, the placements are confusing.
    I think the Music section should be under the Production section; many other film articles follow this trend. Also, the Filming section may suffer from oversectioning because the sections are quite short. Spinixster (chat!) 12:58, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
  • There are some (MOS:EDITORIAL, I think) issues with the prose, such as She deliberately filmed using shots in the style of a drama, although the film is a comedy. The "nose kiss" scene was suggested by Ken Marino, and it made Bell laugh so much she told him he would need to do it twice.
    • I think I have fixed the specific example, but when I search for "ly" in the text, I am confused on how this rule applies.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:59, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
    I did not remember the exact guideline, but the part I mentioned is much better now. I'll do an in-depth review later. Spinixster (chat!) 13:53, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
  • Per MOS:LEAD, the lead is too short.

I'll put this review on hold for now before I do a full review. Feel free to ask any questions if needed. Spinixster (chat!) 07:37, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Full review

Thanks for the needed improvements, I will now review the article further. This may take a while.

  • Lead and infobox:
  • Plot
    • Currently, the plot section sits at ~670 words, so there are no worries about the plot section being too long and violating MOS:PLOT. However, there are many one-sentence paragraphs, which is not encouraged, so I'd merge parts with similar ideas and summarize wherever possible.
  • Production
  • Release
    • This section does not say when it was released at Sundance and North American theaters/international theaters.
  • Box office
    • Perhaps this section can be moved to be inside the Reception section? I see that this is the trend with most articles, and it makes sense.
Per WP:FILMCAST, any uncredited roles should be sourced to reliable sources. Spinixster (trout me!) 05:58, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

  • Copyvio: Aside from the sources clearly copy-pasted from Wikipedia, there's only a 24.2% similarity for an attributed quote and common phrases.

Thanks for the changes. There's just a few more things that I think are needed before I pass this article:

  • I found a few sources that might be useful to expand the Production section, e.g. writing process, inspirations, etc. There's also a few extra reviews for the Reception section.
  • I think the lead may not cover enough of the article, and MOS:LEAD is a required criteria to pass. The lead can still be 2 paragraphs, but may include more information on production, inspiration, etc.
  • Has anyone else done the observation that Melissa Disney was the only female voice-over talent to voice a film trailer?
    The first source seems to be a copy of her bio, which is primary. The original source Movie trailers lack female narrators is much better, though it doesn't mention that she's the only female voice-over talent to voice a film trailer. The second is a biography, which is primary. The third source doesn't seem to mention that she's the only female voice-over talent to voice a film trailer at all.

    Is there a directive in your response?-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:47, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
    Sort of, though I don't think that it'd be useful to use this source in this case if it doesn't say what Lake Bell said. I just asked for more proof instead of relying on Bell. Spinixster (trout me!) 09:14, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
    I'll do some more digging and get back to you.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:31, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
    The source at the time could have been This 2012 article.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:41, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
    I think that's usable, though the claim would have to be altered to Disney being one of the few female voice actors who had voiced a movie trailer. Spinixster (trout me!) 13:24, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
    I have incorporated this.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:05, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
    Thanks. Since I have no more problems with the article, I will be passing this. Spinixster (trout me!) 06:37, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
    After that it is Bell stuff like this. Then the story seems to die.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:47, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
  • One-sentence paragraphs are not encouraged, so they should be merged with another if possible.
  • From the first list, two articles require subscriptions, so I did not incorporate them. I am going to look at the second list. However, for the current article size, I feel the current critical response size is correct. Also, I see metacritic has 30 reviews and rotten tomatoes has 130. How did you select these for inclusion?-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 17:53, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
