I am Legend

[Craven]

Well, for me at least, this movie was a complete let down compared to the book.

Its storyline wasn't as great. The ending was bad. The movie as a whole sucked.

Seeing Will Smith as the main character made me go see it, thinking that it was going to be a great movie like I-Robot, but unfortunatlly, it was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

Your thoughts on this movie?

[Mistress Sheena]

Mine is complete opposite of your opinion. I loved this movie. The story was really good, and one of the later scenes was really depressing even though I saw it coming. It was like Old Yeller. *cough*

And the end was kind of to be expected as well, but the way Will did it was noble and moving. I really liked it in the end. I wasn't disappointed or let down at all.

I thought is was a really good but scary movie
and with a very poor doggy!!! sniff..
I like the story, altho it's quite different from the book.
And Will Smiths acting was great!

But I didn't like the end at all..

[Anachlirium]

Craven! How could you!? ><

I thought it was great, really.

I can't spoiler, so I won't. But it was a good movie. It made me laugh and cry and think a bit. Good storyline, good characterisation for the few that were in it, good acting.

I like the Movie, although I was some what disappointed with the ended. If you seen I guess you can see where I coming from, if you haven't seen then well go see it. And
Crav3n I do agree with one thing you said. I too went to see because Will Smith was the main character.

I can't compare it to the Book cause I didn't know there was one until now. I guess ya'll added a book to my want to read list.

I thought it was a pretty good movie. I haven't read the book, but I might one day. I was satisfied with the ending.. not the happiest of endings, but it made good enough sense. The feel of how alone he was was done pretty well, the only thing I found kind of lame was how he sped around in that sports car of his. I loved his doggy, it was so cute ^_^.

It wasn't as good as it looked, but I did enjoy it. It was funny in some parts, scarey, and sad at the time. I like Will Smith, so I thought it would be a really, really good film, but it wasn't what I expected. Though his acting was great ^^

I found it really funny when he was shouting at that manikin he named Fred xD That was classic xD Quite sad too, seeing as how he was so alone and all...

It also got me quite scared...what if someone actually finds a cure for cancer and this actually happens? Haha.

Anyway...overall, I thought it was a great movie, just not as great a movie that everyone made it out to be.

ide deffinantly have to agree i watched this one saturday and was realy quite pleased with it, i found it to be very sad but kind of predictable. plus the infected (dont know what else to call them) looked really kind of hoaky.

i thought the golfing part was really kind of funny along with other non plot related scenes, the first time hes in the dark kind of gave me the shivers too.

note to lily
i didnt see it because he was in it, it just looked fricken good

[Tiger Lily]

Am I the only one who didn't see it because of Will Smith?

I thought it was a good movie, not too outgoing and not too tame. What you'd expect to see when you buy the ticket, really. I honestly don't see what's wrong with it - I know it's not a world-breaking development in anything in particular, but it's perfectly watchable.
Plot's reasonably developed, ending makes sense. Dog's absolutely adorable. I wanned to take her home. ^^

Overall, I thought it was quite well done, graphics were good. Definitely not a bad movie.

Too bad it's been done several times already. This movie was Omega Man meets 28 Days Later (which is barely original itself). The only original thing in this movie was having a black guy as a main character, but even then:

SPOILER!!:

he still dies.

That isn't to say it wasn't watchable. Far from it. I rather enjoyed the movie, but it was no where near the "masterpiece" that the advertisements claimed. "Oscar worthy"? (as one commercial claimed) It'll be a dark day for the Oscars if this movie is even nominated.

I liked it a lot.

I went and saw this with Andrew the other day. I liked it, although I expected it to be... I don't know, different. I saw extracts and it gave me a different idea about the mutated creatures and when I saw the movie, I saw nothing similar to what the advert had displayed. I really liked it, though.

I even shed a tear when...

Spoiler: The dog died.

And no, I didn't see this because of Will Smith.
