I am certainly not a Legend....

Rating: Null/10 (2 May 2008)

Pretty much below par movie. I didn't see this at the cinema, and I'm now very glad I never.
Will Smith is always a good watch, and in this case he is no different. An assured and solid performance considering he had very little to work with. The pace is slow to start, but unfortunately for the viewer never really picks up.
The most disappointing part for me was the poor development of anything. Characters, back story and explanations of whats going on is non-existent,there is no story arc. The special effects are terrible. The Darkstalkers are all generic and poorly rendered. Nothing about them is believable or intimidating. Eventhe animals that roam the deserted New York island look 100% fake.Poor, poor effects that are unforgivable considering the budget of this movie.
The only thing I did have any feelings for in this whole movie, was for the dog.
I just think that this film had so much potential, and also has one of the biggest names in the business as its lead star. So why it went so wrong I don't really know. The whole film is unlikable and forgettable.
4/10, not good at all, and only just worth a watch......
