Breakout role[edit]

The intro text claims that Forgetting Sarah Marshall was her "breakout film role". (The intro notes her first film role in Spartan. The intro notes her first "major role" as Veronica Mars. It is still possible that breakout film role is true but the fact that qualification would even needed, makes it seem like a fluffy bit of press release overstatement or a prosaic flourish rather than a properly supported NPOV statement appropriate for an encyclopedia, so lets see...)

The article text claims "is considered to be Bell's star-making role" but considered by whom? It is not clear who ever made that claim and the next reference after it is about her voice work on Assassins Creed. Maybe I missed a reference that helps support the statement.

Even if there are references to support the statement I think it would be better to rephrase it into a more neutral tone.

P.S. The Good Place is such a great show! -- 109.79.136.54 (talk) 00:40, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree those statements need clarification and proper sourcing. I'm ok with "breakout film role" if sourced. I don't see breakout as too promotional and I think noting if/when her career in film took a big step forward would be appropriate. Being a film actress is still something different than being a tv actress. "Star-making role" is more troubling for me and I would support rephrasing it.
