pretty good, didn't really like the ending too much( I thought they could've made his death seem more epic with a sense of dualism of when his family died), but w/e

Anyway i thought it was ok not good but not horrible. There was to many things that were un-explained, and the ending was stupid. There was a hole in the glass he could easily have put the grenade through. i hate how movies always feel the need to kill the hero off.

thats whaqt i thought was going to happen- basically the same thing that happened except run up, smash the grenade through then do some badass hollywood duck with a big explosion behind him. It wouldn't have mattered though because all the gasses in the lab would've owned him anyways.

I loved it... it was a lot better than all the critics said. I even had the ending spoiled to me and I still loved it.

[spoiler] Yeah, that scene really affected me... in my opinion it was the best scene of the movie. Both when he started hugging the dog only to realize it was infected, and when he killed it. [/spoiler]

I Am Legend was awesome. Will Smith was a great actor in that movie and the storyline was good. I would see it a lot more times if I could. Everyone should see that movie, its the best movie I've seen in a long time, if not ever

It was certainly entertaining and pretty suspenseful. Worth seeing, especially if you go to the IMAX and see that killer batman preview.

If you have not read the book then its a ok I guess. But since I read the book i consider this movie an insult to the classic book. Why did they have to change the ending to a crappy hollywood style ending? It ruins the whole idea of the I am legend story and turns it into a nothing special hollywood pile of junk. You would think that after 40 years there would be a faithful I am legend movie, but nope hollywood has to rape another classic. Please read the book and you will understand why this movie is an insult and does not deserve to have the title I am legend.

I thought it was really boring from the start. The part when he got the knife stuck in his leg was ridiculous, why did he have to drag himself all the way to his car then finally try to get up?

well if he dropped the grenade through the glass, the glass would have all flown at him at killed him still. I think its best the way it happened, more glory.

I don't see why people keep saying the movie was filled with plot holes. The only one I saw (aside from the extreme BS in the scene where the vampires attack his house) was that the vampires can climb up his house yet they can't climb up a 20 foot wall to get to everyone in the survivor's colony. Something to keep in mind is that the movie makes a lot more sense if you read the book.

I wouldn't say the movie was bad. The first 3/4 of it are great. Its the ending that brings it down. If they had just stuck to the book it would have been one of the best movies of the year imo.
