I want to see it, has a lot of potential and usually Will Smith's movies come through in the end.

Why in the world would you commit such an act? Although I read the book, but somethimes the endings in movies and books are different.

I don't think that Will Smith has ever NOT been in a sweet movie. Plus, GT500, and dog friend? It's a winner.

If you get last months issue (this months maybe) of MAXIM, they pretty much say that the movies are nothing alike. The plot of I AM LEGEND is generally the same as the original book and other films, but as far as you can get away from them without being a different "book". I

This movie was denied to open in China. They only let certain amounts of movies inside their country now so that they can boost their domestic movie economy.

they also made a movie in 71 called "The Omega Man" that was based around the book as well http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067525/

I especially liked that when I went to the page they played a trailer for I am Legend.

What a great book...

Don't worry, Hollywood NEVER kills off it's heros. If they do, the movie is always a flop.

Charlton Heston's The Omega Man is easily one of my favorite movies, and the original book is on my list of favorite books, too.


For that reason, I'm going to the KOP iMax tonight at midnight to see it (sans Z, though).


Anyone else going?

I'll be going tomorrow night, and hopefully they "security" guards don't let too many kiddies in. Damn they are annoying! (the ones that talk and giggle with their friends, and type away on their phones the entire movie).

let me rephrase that;

not at all like the book, and rather bland.

well, you won't be disappointed!

The movie's great.

Definitely doesn't follow the book as closely as I would have liked, but it's great.

Definitely spend the extra $ and see it on IMAX, looks amazing on that screen.


Oh, and the "big" trailer they show before the movie....you'll like that one just as much :cool:

MPowerKai
12-14-2007, 07:28 AM
I give it a 2.5 stars out of 5. It's a pg-13 rated movie, it could've been rated R if they really wanted it. It was a little on the short side, I'm guessing due to Will Smith's salary, location, and cgi they ran out of budget. It doesn't follow the book at all but like I said earlier that is to be expected because if it really did follow the book a lot of people would not have been enchanted by the ending.

The movie revolves more around Neville trying to find a cure than hunting these creatures of the night.

The movie was like Resident Evil, except instead of having a female protagonist it's a male. If you are jumpy or the faint of heart I suggest you not see this movie because the girl next to me kept on jumping when things popped out of nowhere.

ITSTOCK
12-15-2007, 09:35 AM
meh

That's my opinion. I was greatly disappointed. I was even more so disappointed in the "muddy bears", chocolate covered gummy bears. I had high expectations for both, and neither were what I thought they would be.

I loved this movie. I think it held true to the feeling you get from the book, that feeling of isolation, despair, fear...

I didn't like the ending though.

Yeah...I was convinced that it was a movie based on that old SNES game Rampage...especially when, in the trailer you hear someone cry out, "I saw it - it's a lion, it's huge!"
