Jackson Curtis, with conspiracy theorist/radio host Charlie Frost
There is a well-known maneuver in movies in which the hero does something so hardcore, reckless and balls-out, that he is guaranteed to make the leading lady swoon, which (hopefully) earns him some hot nookie...should he survives long enough.
I call this the 'duty for booty' maneuver.
Jackson Curtis is a fine example of said maneuver. He's a author whose first book flopped, and is currently working as a limo driver for Yuri Karpov. He's also a divorced father with a daughter who adores him and a son who calls him by his first name instead of Dad.
While on a camping trip to Yellowstone Park, Curtis run into conspiracy theorist Charlie Frost, who warns him about the 2012 prophecy. Curtis dismisses the thought at first, but when the clues began to sink in, he rents out a plane, collects his family and his ex's current boyfriend, and hauls ass in the midst of the big L.A. quake...in a limo.
Curtis gets major brownie points for not ditching his family and even getting them out in a freakin' limo.
Curtis shows that there is nothing that he will do in order to save his family. Whether it is outrunning earthquakes, supervolcanoes, psycho paperboys, or saving the lives of several thousand people inside an ark that is on a collision course for Mount Everest, Jackson Curtis is indeed a character worthy of respect...and you can guarantee that he is going to get laid.
Trivia: Flip Curtis's name backwards and you get Curtis Jackson, 50 Cent's real name. What are the odds?
