Editorial Review:
Product Description: Robert Neville is a brilliant scientist but even he could not contain the terrible virus that was unstoppable incurable and man-made. Somehow immune Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City and maybe the world. For three years Neville has faithfully sent out daily radio messages desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. But he is not alone. Mutant victims of the plague -- The Infected -- lurk in the shadows... watching Neville's every move... waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Perhaps mankind's last best hope Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But he knows he is outnumbered... and quickly running out of time.Format: BLU-RAY DISC Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE/THRILLERS UPC: 085391176350 Manufacturer No: 1000026365
Amazon.com: Will Smith stars in the third adaptation of Richard Matheson's classic science-fiction novel about a lone human survivor in a post-apocalyptic world dominated by vampires. This new version somewhat alters Matheson's central hook, i.e., the startling idea that an ordinary man, Robert Neville, spends his days roaming a desolated city and his nights in a house sealed off from longtime neighbors who have become bloodsucking fiends. In the new film, Smith's Neville is a military scientist charged with finding a cure for a virus that turns people into crazed, hairless, flesh-eating zombies. Failing to complete his work in time--and after enduring a personal tragedy--Neville finds himself alone in Manhattan, his natural immunity to the virus keeping him alive. With an expressive German shepherd his only companion, Neville is a hunter-gatherer in sunlight, hiding from the mutants at night in his Washington Square town house and methodically conducting experiments in his ceaseless quest to conquer the disease.
The film's first half almost suggests that I Am Legend could be one of the finest movies of 2007. Director Francis Lawrence's extraordinary, computer-generated images of a decaying New York City reveal weeds growing through the cracks of familiar streets that are also overrun by deer and prowled by lions. It's impossible not to be fascinated by such a realistically altered cityscape, reverting to a natural environment, through which Smith moves with a weirdly enviable freedom, offset by his wariness over whatever is lurking in the dark of bank vaults and parking garages. Lawrence and screenwriters Mark Protosevich and Akiva Goldsman wisely build suspense by withholding images of the monsters until a peak scene of horror well into the story. It must be said, however, that the computer-enhanced creatures don't look half as interesting as they might have had the filmmakers adhered more to Matheson's vampire-nightmare vision. I Am Legend is ultimately noteworthy for Smith's remarkable performance as a man so lonely he talks to mannequins in the shops he frequents. The film's latter half goes too far in portraying Smith's Neville as a pitiable man with a messianic mission, but this lapse into bathos does nothing to take away from the visual and dramatic accomplishments of its first hour. --Tom Keogh
Customer Reviews Average Rating:  Rating: - I hated this movie I don't normally write reviews but this movie made me very upset.I almost walked out after a scene that I will not mention for those of you that still wish to see the film.I was so disgusted by the plot, the effects, the inability to make anything actually seem real.I like Will Smith and hope that he continues to make good movies in the future but I would have to say that this was a huge waste of money, time, and effort to go to the theatre.
Rating: - Very entertaining! A very entertaining film... although, like most films it has its flaws, but the great ride makes up for it. Looks AMAZING on Blu ray. The detail is stunning! By far the best looking Blu Ray example in my collection.
Rating: - The Only Man Alive Who Can Survive By Himself And Do It Well It's always a risk reviewing films that were based on books. Especially the ones that have a huge fan base that the fans really really love. Now, I never read I am legend but Will Smith is an amazing actor and one of the best, so I had to see this. I Am Legend is very simple, it almost even reminds you of Cast Away though there're more people or should I say creatures in this film.

Rating: - I Am Legend Will Smith again proves why he is the biggest actor in Hollywood right now. His acting in Legend is the best he's done so far, and makes an already great concept better. The extra features are good, and the animated shorts especially are just great. The alternate ending, though worth it, is a little is iffy to me. I think this movie is worth the price. Oh, and it looks good too.
Rating: - Will Smith makes Legend This movie was great in its own context. It started out with, what I'll admit, were some slightly cheesy computer imagery of a desolate downtown NYC with Will Smith chasing a herd of deer through the abandoned streets. The CGI hemocytes (vampire people), were well done, but I'll agree with a few other reviewers that they could have been done differently and it would have had a greater effect. (without spoiling anything) Robert Neville is a colonel in the army who was charged with extinguishing the ... Read More
