This seems a little familiar..

I Am Legend is a nice Hollywood-type movie. In fact, i liked it more i thought i would. But unfortunately for me, just a week before, i saw another movie, called "28 Days Later", a movie made in 2005 i believe. And in "28 Days Later", i found the following: - The human race is all but wiped out by a deadly man-made virus. This is also the case with Legend. So, checked! - The remaining handful of humans are surrounded by dark-loving zombies. Checked! - The zombies are imaginatively called "The Infected". Checked! - The action takes place in a completely deserted London - cars left in the middle of the street, shops opened for business, apocalyptic 'salvation' flyers all-around. Checked (New York, the same)! - The survivors hear an AM radio transmission that leads to other humans. Checked! - The moment the surviving humans meet is the moment when their routine 'hide from zombies, be safe' ends and apocalyptic events are triggered. Checked! - The humans believe they are all that has survived, but are proved wrong. Checked! - Hope of life returning to 'normal' is highlighted towards the end. Checked! And the list goes on..
If i hadn't seen 28 Days Later, Legend would have gotten an 8.0. This way, it gets a 6.0, and only because of the cute dog is portrays!
