Amazing

Rating: 10/10 (13 February 2008)

Absolutely an amazing movie. The fact that some people are complaining about the context of a movie billed as "The last man on earth" is ludicrous in my opinion. If you went to see Rambo (new one) tag lined as "Heroes never die... they just reload." would you be upset when he shot a gun? This movie has a lot more to consider than arguably any action movie out there. When is the last time that you saw an action movie with as much heart as I am Legend? I personally have tears in my eyes the entire scene where the Dark Seeker dogs attack and Sam is bitten, then it goes on to Neville being forced to kill the last piece of his family that he still had a hold of. The movie has more character development than a lot of people think it does. When you are (as far as you know) the last man on earth, you lose your family, you lose your friends, the only thing you have left is a dog that your daughter wanted to protect you, and you are stricken with the task of saving mankind, you're going to get a little bit angry. You are also going to be a little bit upset most of the time as well. Will Smith played this character perfectly (as he usually does) and this in my opinion is arguably the best performance in any Action movie in recent memory, if not ever. Even Sam gave a better performance than most action heroes. In my opinion, this movie is amazing. I have seen it many a time and I am anxiously awaiting the DVD release of I AM LEGEND.
