Are Three Laws Enough?

Advantages: Excellent story and acting, amazing effects
Disadvantages: None from me

I really don’t know why I had this sitting on my DVD pile for over 12 months and never watched it. Finally I took the plunge and I am so glad I did not just because it stars the gorgeous Will Smith but the whole thing was amazing. Will Smith plays the role of Detective Spooner who is living in the year 2035 where humans and robots are co-existing together. The robots are programmed with 3 laws and this means that they are unable to harm humans and ...
...turn for the worse for Spooner when he gets a call that one of the Doctors at the Robotic Centre has been found dead. Spooner heads on out there as he has a special connection with this Doctor. When he arrives he finds that the Doctor has committed suicide but he does not believe this and when he finds a hellgrammite message he knows that he did not kill himself. Spooner is teamed up with Dr Susan Calvin who is a robot psychologist and the pair set ...

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 ...

one of will smiths better films

Advantages: bit of a nail biter, lots of suspence
Disadvantages: not alot of dialect. but there isn't anyone for him to talk to

...off a little slow and i think it taks a little too long to get to know what happened. will smith doesn't speak for the majority of this film other than to his dog, but in all fairness he plays a very good part even though there isn't alot of dialect. one for the ladies as there is a a shower scene for all the will smith lovers!! special effects are good and makes you wonder what it would be like being in a city on your own. if your a dog lover then ...

I am legend

Advantages: good entertaining film
Disadvantages: ending was a bit abrupt

Producers: Erwin Stoff, David Heyman and Akiva Goldsman Director: Francis Lawrence. Writers: Mark Protosevich and Akiva Goldsman Based on the 1954 novel by Richard Matheson. Starring: Will Smith (with a short appearance by Alice Braga towards the end of the movie). Released in 2007 this was always going to be one of Will Smiths most challenging rolls, acting solo through most of the movie. Sadly, compared to Wills other movies, such as 'I robot', ...
...many more, this movie lacked something to which Will Smith, regardless of his talent, could do anything to salvage. **BRIEF PLOT** The film is based in 2012 and opens with flash backs from 2009, showing the human race being wiped out by what was grown as the cure for cancer. The rest of the film is a solo performance from Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville (played by Will Smith), apart from his canine companion Sam, the only surviving member of ...
