Review of Roger Dodger (2002) by Evelyn M — 24 Jun 2007
Campbell Scott is SUCH a jerk, but his character is on to something with his theories...this movie left me feeling torn between appreciating the character, and despising him.
There's a lot going on in this movie that is hard to describe. I know people who have seen it and hated it, but I felt really emotionally invested in this guy. I don't think characters have to be likeable or positive for a movie to be good and Roger Dodger proves that. This is not a nice guy. He's an ass, he's funny and intelligent, but royally messed up. You can't tear your eyes away from him.
If the only Campbell Scott movie you've seen is Dying Young, you NEED to see this one. The guy can act.
