Nope!

Rating: 6/10 (5 April 2008)

You're gonna hate me. Oh yes you will.
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
Wil Smith: good actor, fine actor. This movie: hard to say. The script was not very good. I guess he did an adequate job with the material, as well as the physical part of his role. If anything, it looked like an exercise in "see how well I can act." I'll take Ali, Men in Black, Independence Day, thank you.
Special Effects- Disaster: half-and-half. The cityscapes were well-done, evoking that ache which is desirable for this type of apocalyptic theme. However, details! Why are there lions roaming Manhattan? Did someone let out the zoo? And why are there "herds" of deer. First place: deer don't congregate like that. Second place: where did they come from? Manhattan's sealed off, remember? A further bone of contention: the deer have *what* to do with the plot?
Special Effects- Zombie/Vampires: terrible. "The Last Man on Earth" (1964) did it right. The returned should be weak, feeble, and feeble-minded. It just makes sense. Also, why do all the creatures look alike? Are they albino? What's with the razor teeth? And how come they can howl like a banshee? Furthermore, the CGI hordes were just ridiculous, regardless of how much work that took. They can climb buildings like Spider-Man? And since when do NYC brownstones crumble like dust? Those buildings are built like tanks.
Logic- As many have pointed out, what's the story with the lack of guns and ammo? How much sense does it make to have autos rigged with explosives right outside your house? Seriously, an electric fence makes much more sense. And how do all the lights in the area work? They shouldn't, since he needs a generator or three to keep his place going. On that, where are these generators?- it seems awful quiet in that house! And how did the vampires cut off power to all the lights at once? I could go on all day about logic.
How did Anna's presence cause the vampires to disperse? Did she have halogen lights? So what if she did? How did she get Wil Smith to the car? They should have showed her strength.
Who is Ethan? We get no background, and ultimately end up not caring about him. How can such a kid survive, one who doesn't know enough to keep his trap shut when a ceiling-hanging zombie is nearby? Oy.
Here's another thought: the grenade at the end. What is it packing, a mini H-bomb? And if the blast is that powerful, shouldn't Anna and Ethan be trapped in the chimney? I want logic!
So, a nice visual movie, with great sound, pleasing to the senses. But it makes very little sense.
