Something about a 'Legend' just stays with you

Advantages: very believable, excelent plot
Disadvantages: can be confusing to some people

...alone for all those years. I think that this movie was very well written from the main plot to the side plots everything fit together and made it believable. It was the kind of movie you just want to watch again and each time you do there seems to be something else you didn't notice that just adds to the believable plot. ...

iRobot, a action packed film, with both humor and story to it.

Advantages: Good acting, good sound effects, and good other special effects, action packed.
Disadvantages: is a little long

I really did enjoy this film, so much so I watched it three times. As i first watched it at quite a young age i didn't fully understand the story. However on the second time of watching it I just understood and it the end all made sence and became clear. This film really was action packed yet somehow they also manged to fit both humor, a love story and a great plot that was unexpected. I have always loved Will Smith as a actor and I feel he did ...
...realtioship with the other main charcter when I watched it the second and third time. I thought it was amazing, that you got to see how different he was when talking to he's Granma conpared to when he was talking to he's boss, friends and girlfriend. And to see how bad he felt and why he did feel so bad. Also why he had such a strong dislike against the robots. Overall I would recomd watching this film, as I would recomd most of the films Will ...

Will Smith in the Blu.

Advantages: Stunning film
Disadvantages: Nothing

I Am Legend. I remember watching the original film 'The Omega Man', starring Charlton Heston. It was a bit poor and massively different from the book. This latest version starring Will Smith is slightly different from the book but closer to the mark. ~The story~ Robert Neville is the last 'Normal' human alive in the city of Los Angeles and possibly the last in the world. His mind is constantly prayed upon with doubts ...
...There is apparently newer things on the way such as Dolby True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks, so even this may soon be surpassed. Worth the money and a film to be watched again and again All in all a movie I enjoyed. Recommended. Greg. ...

Am I Legend?

Advantages: Alternate ending a must see.
Disadvantages: Still just a zombie movie

After watching the movie the first time my reaction was mixed to say the least. Reading the description gives u a broad stroke to what the movie is about, but what it doesn't elaborate on is the fact that while "Will Smith comands the screen for most of the movie", most of the movie is 85% of it, leaving ur thoughts wondering at times to what to wear the next day and if u should get ur car washed. Will Smith played the character very well, making ...
...he is going thru. The ending however, is what this Special Edition is all about. Yes there are zombies, and one man fighting them off looking for a cure seems to make for a interesting (if not somewhat overdone) plot. But it's the ending that makes this movie controversial. If u have seen this movie before and thought the ending was not quite what u expected, then this DVD is for u. It gives u that warm fuzzy feeling rather than leaving u with the ...
