I gave it a 9.5 of 10 and right now that's good for #1 on my 2006 list, though its still only at 19 films and Oscar season is yet to start.
I'm not sure anyone else really has an Oscar shot, but I think Arkin is a very legit candidate for one of the Best Supporting noms.
Carrell has now pulled off 2 comedic roles with very understated efforts. Pretty impressive, quite the opposite of what you would expect from his prior bit part and TV work.
I compared the humor/drama mix to that of Sideways, which I suppose makes its Oscar chances pretty solid considering the rest of the summer Oscar competition.
