Solid Will Smith Performance. I Don't Get The Hate.

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2017)

Continue my plan to watch every Will Smith movie in order, I come to I Am Legend (2007)
Plot In A Paragraph: Three years after a man made cure for cancer evolves, causing all infected to either die or turn into bloodthirsty monsters, Dr. Robert Neville (Smith) alongside his dog, Samantha, are the last survivors in New York City, and possibly the world. Neville, in the meantime, struggles to find a cure.
I know the movie gets a lot of hate, but I really like it. We get some decent acting from Will Smith, especially when he is talking to the mannequin in the video store, after THAT death. Which I still hate to watch.
It's not perfect, some of the cgi isn't great, it has a few plot holes and I don't care how far in the future this is set, I don't believe anybody would never have heard of Bob Marley, yet knows his son Damian Marley (whom I'd never heard of) but that's just a minor gripe.
Overall it's well acted, well paced and has a good sense of atmosphere. I like it.
I Am Legend grossed $256 million at the domestic Box Office (his third movie of $250 million and 7th $100 million grossed in a row) to end the year, the 7th highest grossing movie of 2007. His best performing movie since Men In Black 10 years earlier.
