Could have been so much better!

Rating: 5/10 (24 March 2012)

"I Am Legend" could have been a legendary movie in its own right.
Robert Neville (Will Smith) is the only man left in the world (or so we think) in 2012 after a virus wipes out the rest of the human race which turns them into vicious hungry monsters. Robert wants to find a cure so in order to find it he seeks out the infected beings at night and either takes them out to survive or drags them to his underground lab for research.
I was sitting in the theatre thinking that this was going to be a great thriller. Then came the horrible CGI. The monsters and the lions are terrible, just awful. They looked like they were photo shopped directly from the internet. The daytime shots were done well but at night it turned into some lame cheesy action movie. It was a real shame because this had potential to be a great thriller.
Aside from that, the acting is done well and some scenes were tense with some jump scenes.
