Film Review: I Am Legend by Sophia Cynthia Cabral

Drama, Horror, Sci-fi
Release date: December 05, 2007
Director: Francis Lawrence
Starring: Will Smith, Dash Mihok, Alice Braga, Charlie Tahan
Plot: A disease kills all humanity apparently, except for one, Dr. Robert Neville that tries to find a cure to it, he and his dog try to survive in a very dangerous world where when the sun goes down, it’s hunting time and he’s the prey.
Review: It flows smoothly; the fact that he’s the only human at first is a good touch, a man and his dog. During the movie, we see a rivalry grow between the Alpha infected male and Robert. The character development is stable, smooth although I admit I wish I could have known more of the Alpha infected. Sometimes, fighting so long to survive makes one unable to socially interact easily but can they be blamed? They just did what they had to survive and it takes its toll, both the good and the bad. This movie is one I’d re-watch just because of the acting that is quite convincing and a charming story. Sometimes we must make choices and we must learn there are consequences for it. -Sophia Cynthia Cabral
