Things that would improve "I Am Legend"

Rating: 1/10 (12 January 2008)

I'm going to list improvements that could be made to this movie. WARNING: SPOILER START 1.If the British scientist(Ahhh, us evil Brits) in the opening sequence had said "copper" instead of cop. A British person would do this. 2. If the same scientist had been less confident in her claim of having cured cancer. Real scientists, when interviewed, are usually very careful with what they say. 3. If we had seen Robert Neville's family die, before seeing Robert Neville alone in New York. This way, the suspense would be intact. 4. If we got some explanation why Neville's wife, when scanned for the virus, first tested positive, then, when scanned again, negative. Also, it would be cool to know why the quarantine guards accepted this? Seems there's a 50/50 chance she's infected, that's some risk to take letting her through? 5. If Robert Neville was a little less resourceful. On a typical day, he manages to get up, work out, hunt deer, harvest vegetables, transmit his call for help "on all AM frequencies", return his DVDs and get out new ones, conduct his lab experiments, work on his drive and finally, he feeds and washes his dog. For some reason, at the end of the day, he goes to sleep in his bathtub. 6. If the ending was rewritten. For some reason, we get this holier-than-thou crap about genetic engineering being a sin, and then Anna starts on about how God wanted them to meet. She also claims that He has told her about a surviving colony of people in the mountains. Also, who has ever heard of a zombie flick with a happy ending? 7.If Anna had heard of Bob Marley. Like everyone else on this planet. The movie cliché, where Neville looks incredulous, and subsequently introduces her to the music, would have worked better with some lesser known artist. For God's sake. A woman like Anna, in her late twenties to early thirties KNOWS who Bob Marley is. And so did we, so thanks a million for telling us, Robert Neville. SPOILER END If all these things were improved, you might end up with a descent movie.
