Robert Neville (Will Smith) is a brilliant scientist, but even he could not contain the terrible virus that was unstoppable, incurable... and manmade. Somehow immune, Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City... and maybe the world. But he is not alone. He is surrounded by "the Infected"-victims of the plague who have mutated into carnivorous beings who can only exist in the dark and who will devour or infect anyone or anything in their path. For three years, Neville has spent his days scavenging for food and supplies and faithfully sending out radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. All the while, the Infected lurk in the shadows, watching Neville's every move, waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Perhaps mankind's last, best hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But his blood is also what The Infected hunt, and Neville knows he is outnumbered and quickly running out of time.
I Am Legend was released December 14th, 2007 and stars Will Smith, Alice Braga, Charlie Tahan, Salli Richardson-Whitfield, Willow Smith, Darrell Foster, April Grace, Dash Mihok. The film is directed by Francis Lawrence.

The brilliance of ID4? Well, I guess it is genius to a certain degree to progressively stack the crap higher and higher as the film goes on. It did take some kind of planning for a film to start off as an entertaining concept and get progressively stupider and more moronic as you go. Pathetic one-liners, terrible performances, actors clearly embarrassed to be there... When you've got Jeff Goldblum embarrassed, you've accomplished something with his career. Bill Pullman, non-actor, as President of the US, with his goofy, no eye contact, sheepish wimp performance donning a flight jacket. Randy Quaid, doing the worst "heroic" death in the history of cinema. Will Smith searching for and finding his wife, apparently the only survivor of her entire city. What a lucky coincidence! Just return that copter when you're done with it, Will. It's not like we'll need it in the midst of fighting an interstellar war

Ok, from reading what you have said, I cannot respect your view on movies at all.to say that Pursuit of Happiness is boring is one thing (aparently you don't understand emotionals stories), but to say "Independece Day was sh*t" is rediculous! This is one of the best movies ever! That is not just my opinion either, that is a commonly held view.
But i agree with you on your final point, his film selection leaves something to be desired. That is the abundance of his movies. There is simply not enough of them!

" I Robot" was boring, "Independece Day" was sh*t, never liked, always thought it was a waste of space, even when I saw it in a theater!, & Pursuit of Happiness was Zzzzzzzz W/.a capital "Z"! "MIB 2" & "Bad Boys II" should have never happend, & well "Wild Wild West" was just a Razzie film all the way & "The Legend of Bagger Vance" was also another Zzzzz film (It's about golf)!!
Let's see...hmmm the only films Will Smith was even watchable in was:
1) Men In Black
2) Enemy of the State
3) Six Degrees of Separation
4) Where the Day Takes You
5) Ali
So when it comes to Will Smith, he may be a good actor, but his films choices leave something to be desired!

You may not be able to beat a dead horse, but you sure can buy a better one! and that is what has happened here. This "remake" may not have an original storyline, but it will be the best of those others that you listed 2MovieGuys. Smith doesn't do movies to "pay his rent". He hasnt even done more then 15 movies in his career, which means that he is selective with movies. He only does things that he wants to do, and they are always successful, i.e. I Robot, Independece Day, Pursuit of Happiness, ect. THis movie will be great, and i cant wait for it!

I beg to differ it's hard to relax and watch something that is on it's "4th" Re-Make!!
After you have read the book, & seen all the versions (The 1971 "The Omega Man" is the best & a cult classic) there is no hope left when an old idea has to recycled!! You can't keep beating a dead horse as the old saying goes!
I guess Will Smith needed to pay his rent, that is why he went ahead W./a Re-Make in-side of a Re-Make!

i agree with moviefan, this movie is debuting to a new generation, not the baby boomers anymore.. it will be a hit, and they obviously changed things up seeing as they took some ideas from the book and adopted some new age ideas as well to keep it fresh, the book was boring and so were those movies mentioned by 2movieguys.. this seems to have just enough plot from the book to keep it on track

Probably because most of the people who will watch this may not even have heard of the movies you just listed, I never heard of them until reading your comment. Also this won't be the same group of people who saw these other movies back in '64 and '71, but except for maybe a very small percentage.Besides all that, I think this movie will be great.

"I Am Legend" has so far been adapted to film four times":
In 1964, Vincent Price starred as Dr. Robert Morgan (rather than "Neville") in "The Last Man on Earth". (An Italian production, the original title was L'Ultimo Uomo Della Terra).
In 1971 a far different version appeared as "The Omega Man", starring Charlton Heston and Anthony Zerbe.
Then there was the film "I am Omega" a straight to DVD adaptation released in 2007 by The Asylum, starring Marc Dacascos, directed by Griff Furst.
I'm still wondering how they can breath life into something that has been over...and over...and over...and over!!!
