I Am Legend

Rating (1-10, 10 being highest): 5

Quick Rating: (skip, watch, watch when no other choice): Watch when no other choice

Story Line: American version of 28 Weeks Later. Will Smith as the only survivor of a virus that wiped out New York City. He strives for living a SINGLE life while finding the cure.

What's good: It is interesting to see New York City as a deserted place. Will Smith definitely makes the movie less boring.

What's bad: The movie is light on the zombies and action sequences.

Bottom line: Having watched 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later, I have to say I Am Legend is nothing new and the movie comes short in terms action, horror, and storyline. But being a big budget movie with a big star, a typical guy will watch it so you can say I watched it, but you won't end up satisfied.
