Oscar (Shark Tale)

Oscar is the main protagonist of the 2004 DreamWorks film . He is Angie's boyfriend and co-worker, Lenny's best friend, Lola's ex-boyfriend and the former tongue-scrubber and current co-manager of the Whale Wash. He is a blue-streaked cleaner wrasse. He is voiced by Will Smith.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He is initially narcissistic, greedy and self-centered, and seems to care only about himself. In one scene, Angie gives him a pearl that supposed to get him out of debt. What does he do? He doesn't pay off the debt, he bets it on a seahorse race! (Albeit, everyone was expecting Lucky Day to win, so he probably figured there was nothing to worry about.)
 * 2) His dream of becoming rich and famous is extremely shallow and materialistic.
 * 3) He is obnoxious, immature and stupid.
 * 4) His design is unintentionally hideous that it looks like it was Photoshop, mainly by his face.
 * 5) Not only did he bet Angie's pearl on a race (albeit, everyone was expecting that Lucky Day would win as mentioned before), he also lied to everyone about killing a shark just so he could become rich and famous which is very unacceptable since he's too much of a coward to do something like that.
 * 6) * Geez, Even Lenny (the friendly, slightly dim shark) knows that he made all the shark slaying up.
 * 7) He became infatuated with Lola despite the fact that she rejected him for being a nobody.
 * 8) He is highly oblivious to Angie's feelings for him, no matter how obvious they are to everyone else, including his boss Sykes.
 * 9) He likes to think of himself as a ladies' man when he is actually awkward around them, as shown with him being clumsy when flirting with Lola and being bashful when confessing his feelings to Angie.

Good Qualities

 * 1) He has decent character development, since he tells the truth and tells Angie he loves her.
 * 2) He's pretty good as a singer.
 * 3) At least his voice actor Will Smith did a good job voicing him, despite wasting his talents.
 * 4) Despite the fact that he lied about being a shark slayer, he actually managed to take Don Lino down by trapping him into the whale washing machine, living up to his reputation in the process.
 * 5) Despite being oblivious to Angie's feelings for him, he still cares about her and treats her with respect.  In fact, he returns Angie her grandmother's pearl to her in a necklace when he gets popular, showing his gratitude to her for being there for him.
 * 6) As shallow as it is, his reason for becoming rich and famous is quite sympathetic.  It stems from a traumatic childhood experience of his elementary school classmates mocking him for his father's job at Ithe Whale Wash.  It also comes from the fact that no one except Angie respects him.
 * 7) He is compassionate and open-minded.  When Lenny confesses that he is a vegetarian, Oscar opened up to it despite his urge to laugh at his secret.  He also helps Lenny to get over Frankie's death by saying that it is not his fault and taking full responsibility for it.
 * 8) Despite his egotistical and immature nature, he is pretty much pleasant to everyone around him.
 * 9) Even though he is ashamed about being a nobody like his father, he still admires him and follows his footsteps.  At the end of the movie, he places a picture of his father on his desk when he became manager, showing his satisfaction of continuing his father's legacy.
