"Original?!"

Rating: Null/10 (23 March 2008)

Found it most humorous to read in a comment how wonderful it was to find such an "original" movie. Anyone who thinks this is an "original" should check out Charlton Heston in "The Omega Man." "I Am Legend" is virtually the exact same movie...even the name of the lead character is the same, and in both he drives a Ford Mustang! Oh sure, there are some minor variations, such as, in the original, Neville has no dog for companionship and the "mutants," although completely insane are still capable of speaking. While Will Smith was superb and delivered the best acting performance I've seen out of him to date, overall "The Omega Man" is a much better version of the same basic story.
