I watched it for the first time just a few days ago also prepared to not like it very much, because about 80% of my friends list it as their favorite movie of 2006... but I thought it was really cute. I love Olive's character. My only complaints were that they used "Chicago" when they were setting out for California (but that's kind of a joke complaint) and I thought Steve Carell could have been showcased a little more without completely taking over the film. He's so funny! Take advantage!

I too thought Carell was under-used - I think he could be a really good "serious" actor if he gets offered more good scripts like this one.

Everyone seems impressed with Steve Carell (I was too). I guess comedians aren't expected to be good at anything other than making us laugh.
