Is it just me or did this film scare anyone else? That moment in the dark! Anyway, rather liked this. Such a lonely movie but Will Smith really good. I always think he is good and looking forward to his new one, Hancock that looks very silly but entertaining. I don't want to say I enjoyed I Am Legend ... beccause there's not much to enjoy given the subject matter but it held me tightly. I could predict the storyline very easily and still I'm thinking about the story. My teenage sons gripped by it. F

I have to ask, did you watch the alternative ending or the read theatrical ending?

My boyfriend and I accidently watched the alternative ending by accident (it just started playing and we didn't realise there was two types on the Blu Ray) and i've IMDB'ed the other ending and I think that the alternative ending sounds much better.

The dark scene was just downright creepy, I was so scared sam wouldn't make it out alive. 

Will Smith is one of those unexpected Gems, that you didn't think would happen.  Hancock definately looks fun.

 

The mannequin bit really creeped me out., i was tugging at my boyfriends sleve going "Toshi.... the mannequin...... the MANNEQUIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and he was like...that's not the mannequin.... and five minutes later he's like..."oh"

I have to admit that I haven't seen this movie yet and I am not sure I want going on the previous comments (I don't do scary movies well!) but I must put a Vote in for Will Smith being a great actor. I have loved just about every movie that he had done and one that always springs to mind when I think of him is Pursuit of Happiness. I realise this is only a recent film of his but I absolutely loved this film it was fantastic!!

I'm a sucker for "survival horror" so I quite enjoyed this movie. It's a pity they didn't stick to the real ending (i.e. how the book ended).. defeated the purpose of the title  "I Am Legend"

Haunting... thats what it felt like to me when I watched it. The isolation of it sent my instincts into overdrive. It just the kind of film that makes you think because it makes you wonder if you could survive yourself in such a situation.
