Jan. 8th, 2008 09:56 amWent to see I Am Legend last night with
doseybat and
timeplease. This is another playing-it-straight zombie movie, and apparently not bearing very much resemblance to the source material.
Not sure what to make of it. I liked the details (Neville's competence at surviving - lots of cool little details there - versus his increasingly deranged state; the deserted New York; the flashbacks to the evacuation), but not the film as a whole. In particular, it would have been a better film without the last scene, leaving it more ambiguous.
