I am Legend

Rated PG13 for violence and terror

Starring Will Smith

Imagine there was a cure for cancer and every cancer patient was given it. Then imagine if that cure backfired later, wiping out the majority of the human race and the only ones left were either immune to the disease or turned into zombie-like monsters.

So is the premise of I am Legend.

Robert Neville (Will Smith) was a Lt. Colonel in the military and doctor working to cure the mistakes that the cancer cure created. He appears to be the only survivor and has been living alone in New York City with his dog, Sam. Everyday at high noon he waits for other survivors and attempts to hunt the overpopulated wildlife running through the city. By night, he hordes himself up in his house with a gun, as the infected monsters only come out when the daylight is gone. He spends his free time experimenting on lab rats, and eventually on one of the infected, to try and find a cure for the cancer cure gone wrong.

We really see what it would be like to be completely isolated and how one can attempt to keep sanity.

The end was a bit cheesy and definately not the typical zombie/infected type ending we're used to (everyone is supposed to die, damnit!), but the rest of the movie was pretty good...
