well if he threw it and got in the hatch thing, the survivors would keep coming after him. they wouldn't stop until he was dead.

I thought the same thing about the ending but he could have gotten in the hatch and then thrown it rather than throwing it and then getting in the hatch. I liked the movie but didn't think it was one of the best ever.

I say it every time someone makes the statement, but if you think I Am Legend is one of the greatest movies ever made, you need to watch more movies.

Mazel tov. I thought I Am Legend was a garbage movie, typical hollywood crap and had one of the worst endings in movie history. The CGI was pitiful and the only thing that saved it from Uwe Boll-like quality was Will's performance. Not to mention the plotholes. But hey, if you're 13 years old, I Am Legend would be the greatest movie in the world, so I dont blame you.

definitly to many parts in the movie that they don't explain.

1) How did the people become they way they did. yea we know they took the medicine but how did they de-volve if thats a word

2) how teh ^&*& did the chick get to the harbor if all the bridges were blown to contain the infection?

3) how come some animals were but some wern't vurnable to infection?

4) same as three but with humans in its place

i know i should read the book but until then someone care to expalin

It was great up until he meets the woman and kid. Then it all just went to hell. It probably would have helped if the movie was an hour longer since the ending seemed really rushed (and rather poorly thought out).

most of them weren't. Doesn't explain why he and the chick are immune,or why the dog is immune to airborne virus. doesn't expalin how the chick and kid got there they just appeared. And it doesn't expalin(it could have made the movie much much better)

Thats even lamer than the crappy ending it already has. They messed up this movie, why even call it I am legend if it has pretty much nothing to do with the book and messes up the whole point of the title I am legend.

1. It mutated into an airborne strain as well. They say that explicitly in the movie several times. Not to mention there were carriers roaming around attacking people.

2. I don't know NYC well enough to answer that. I'm pretty sure that only Manhattan is an island though (or was he on Manhattan Island? Like I said I don't know NYC very well). Assuming he was locked in by water though she could have gotten a boat or something. Its not too hard to imagine that they got there.

3. It's called "immunity". Thanks to a varied gene pool and assuming that a specie's numbers are large enough some members of a species will usually be immune to a given disease due to genetic factors. Look at the bubonic plague: some people died within 24 hours of showing symptoms while others were around bodies all day and never got sick.

4. See #3

It was entertaining to watch, but not a "great" movie in my opinion. I probably wouldn't put it in a top 100 movies I have seen list.

It was such a creepy movie because philosophers long ago like Socretes and Merlin(the more recent and dark one)foresaw WW1, WW2, electronics coming, bombs exploding, etc, and they foresaw that the world was going to end December 21st, 2012. It could be real, it could be fake, but that creeps me out. You never know what could happen,we would just have to wait. But anyways, it was an awesome movie that really made you shudder. It was tense and suspensful, and made an affect.

Yeah, it sort of did seem rushed. I really enjoyed the movie though. I wouldn't call it one of the best but it sure was the best movie to come out this year. I'm looking forward to The Dark Knight this year. That trailer was AWESOME!

I know. It didn't help when he sang that song while it was being infected. It was especially sad for me since I had to leave my dog behind before I moved to GA last year. He was my best friend. That dog really reminded me of my dog.

This movie was very disappointing to me. There is no way it should ever even be mentioned in a class of one of the best movies ever. The movie seemed to have a crappy ending that came really abruptly. Even with the legendary Will Smith,I think it was only an average film.

Haven't seen it. I've watched the other takes on the story though. Last Man on Earth was a very good, underrated film. Omega Man was pretty ho-hum, but Charlton Heston is always awesome when not conducting NRA business.

I absolutely loved the first 3/4 of the movie. It got pretty messed up when it introduced the "other survivors", and then the ending was just crap. They should have just stuck with the ending from the book IMO.

I didn't think it was the best movie of 2007, though. I liked 3:10 to Yuma better. Dragon Wars was also pretty... enjoyable (best comedy of 2007!).

I dont even call it I am legend, that would be like punching the books author in the face. I call it I am Will Smith instead, it does not deserve the honor of being I am legend.

The ending was a bit too abrupt.. They should have shown how the humans became zombies though..
