Are fanservice-y characters (i.e. Lara Croft, Tifa Lockhart) immediately bad?

How a character is written and how a character is drawn are two different things, and usually the product of two (or more) different people.

It is entirely possible to have a sexualized character to be well written and vital to the story they are in.

Still, Jessica is well written, and an important part of the movie story. Particularly when we realize everything she did in the movie was because she genuinely loved her husband:
