AN EXCELLENT SCI-FI THRILLER & A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE BY WILL SMITH.

Rating: 9/10 (31 July 2018)

WILL SMITH is a BRILLIANT actor FACT.
Smith gives a powerful & fantastic performance as the lonely last man survivor in the world,he's Robert Neville & he's surviving in New York City with just his dog but there are others but they are infected zombie types that only come out at night. I am legend is a BRILLIANTLY made sci-fi Horror Thriller that's intense & scary & emotional & that is solely because of WILL SMITH!!! His performance is BRILLIANT,his emotional eyes say it all.A true modern Classic.
Now i love the movie it's a massively budget apocalyptic Horror Thriller but it's not perfect as the infected Dark seekers are all c.g.i & that is never a good thing as i always prefer the practical make up fx & rubber suits it looks more real & grimy & gritty just look at how terrifying the infected zombies was in 28 days later & they was actors in scary as hell make-up no cheap looking c.g.i so THAT was the one problem i had with an otherwise fantastic movie.
The Dark seekers though do look good & are very frantic & scary but you can see they're computer images & that does take a little of the suspense away but the design/look of them is very well done & they are scary.
The mood & atmosphere is very well done with this movie it has a loneliness to it & the music score is very sad with a sense of loss.

Will Smith is truly OUTSTANDING as Robert Neville & shows why he's the greatest movie star on the planet.
This is the closest i will ever get to will smith being in a zombie movie or even a Horror movie & as Horror is my favourite genre & smith is my favourite actor this movie means alot to me.
I am legend is an excellent movie & the performance by smith is outstanding so this is an instant CLASSIC in my opinion & yes the infected are well done but c.g.i of course now imagine if they looked like they do but was played by actors like in that excellent 28 days later!!! Would've been AMAZING.
I've been a huge Smith fan since the fresh Prince days & have grown up loving him as my idol as an icon & as my childhood hero.
Now "I Am Legend" is not a Masterpiece but it's one hell of a good sci-fi Thriller & very entertaining
