Ehh... The film was well-made, but they crapped the story up. Diluted the entire thing into a mindless zombie picture.

Yeah I kinda have to agree. The first time I watched it the movie was epic. But every time after that its gotten less awesome. They should've gone on with the story a little further and developed it better. The story to action ratio was off lol.

The short story is worlds better than the movie.

That being said, the movie was alright for a generic action movie.

I haven't. I didn't even know there was one....damn I'm gonna have to find it now. I usually like the books more than movies that are based on them.

^That link kinda gives the whole book away, though.

It's funny because the name "I Am Legend" doesn't even make any sense if you just watch the movie.

Yeah they kinda tried to tie it in to the title at the end, but I think it qualifies as an epic fail. They did a horrible job on that. I love the action though.

The movie was so far off from the book I didn't like the movie all. The two plots were just worlds apart. Not even close. Go read the book.
