Alright movie...... Could have been better

Rating: 7/10 (26 December 2007)

Okay, I would really like to give this movie 6 1/2, but thats not an option. And since Will Smith did a really good job,... I will bump it to a 7.
The best part of the movie is Will Smiths acting. I cant complain about that. He was very solid in this, and not over the top like in some past movies. He definitely carried this movie through til the end. His interaction with his dog, etc..... was very convincing and you could imagine how he felt and what state of mind he was in.
Also, the idea behind this movie is really good. (yes I know it is a remake) My problem is that this movie had a lot of potential,... but in my opinion it didn't capitalize on it. And also, where as most movies drag on for like 15 minutes after they should have ended,........ I really felt like this movie would have been better if it had maybe ran a little longer.
Really wish it would have shown a little more of the "dark seekers". Maybe shown some flashbacks of the virus taking over, and people de-evolving into these creatures. Maybe a little more interaction between Smith and the main "dark seeker".
But mainly I was disappointed with the ending. I thought it was starting to build towards something,..... but it never did.
