Director: Francis Lawrence
Actors: Will Smith, Alice Braga, Charlie Tahan, Salli Richardson-Whitfield, Willow Smith, Darrell Foster, April Grace, Dash Mihok, Joanna Numata, Marin Ireland, Steve Cirbus, Calista Hill and Emma Thompson
Year: 2007
Genre: Drama, Horror, Sci-Fi and Thriller
Conclusion: 2/5
Adapted from a 1954 novel by Richard Matheson. This is the third time they have tried to make this novel into a film. The first film titled “The Last Man on Earth” (1964) and the second titled “The Omega Man” (1971). I am Legend is a film that should work on many levels but doesn’t. I have to say that my favourite scene is at the very beginning with Emma Thompson. I did find the mutant plague victims unconvincing and unrealistic.
