Awful ending of a mediocre movie

Rating: 6/10 (17 January 2008)

I'm a big fan of Will Smith. In this movie, he's a mixture of a good guy and a nervous basket case who's cracking down more and more. Will Smith in a zombie movie. Outsmarted by zombies. We have seen much better zombie movies, where the zombies really look convincing, but that's not the case here.
The end is really crazy. He does not want to survive with the two last survivors, but he sends them away to a surprising way out (hey, where did that come from), that would stop the zombies from following them. Will Smith could have gotten away, while still letting the hand grenade explode and let it kill the zombies.
At the end, the two survivors arrive at a huge wall. Other survivors with big military power. But earlier in the movie, we saw the zombies having superhuman strength and speed. They could easily climb that wall! Ridiculous that here's a human stronghold that isn't run over by the zombies. It should be on some island, not here.
