I am legend review

Rating: 7/10 (4 June 2015)

This movie stars Will Smith and is a post apocalyptic zombie movie. The film is set in New York City, 3 years after a cancer cure turned into a virus and killed most of the population and turned the rest into zombie like creatures. Will Smith played the role of a US Army Virologist that is immune to the disease. He is the only one left in New York City, or at least he thinks he is. He spends most of his time trying to cure the disease and fighting to survive. He is all-alone for most of the movie with the exception of his dog, Sam, that becomes his best friend after the outbreak occurs. The zombie creatures in the movie cannot go out in the sunlight so Smith does all his work during the day while he can roam free. Once night hits, he has to lock up the house and put metal shutters on the windows and doors so the zombies cannot find him. Every day he faces new challenges in this new dystopia world.
