10. James Kirk - Star Trek (2009)
Who He Is in the Movie: The Renegade, Charismatic Captain-to-Be
Who He Is in Real Life: The Guy Who is Convinced He Can Get Away with Anything Like many dashing protagonists on this list, Captain Kirk is a my-way-or-the-highway fella even before he sits in the Captain's chair. He cheats on what would be considered his final and then
expects to actually get away with it by proving in trial that the test in question is flawed. He's bold and brash, which provides for some great cinematic moments, but also makes me want him to stay away from me at all times. Because we all know someone who thinks they're God's gift to humanity (heaven forbid you or I are that person) and can smooth things over, no matter how radically, because they're the first ones to figure something out or do something boldly. Kirk might be an exciting friend for a while, but as time goes on, his schtick would grow old and he'd become exasperating to have to hang out with.
