saw it when it came out... not as amazing as I thought it would be, still pretty good nonetheless. the first 45-60 minutes leave you in awe, but then it gets pretty average and predictable. oh, and the Dark Knight trailer alone is also worth the purchase (H)

Saw it the other day and it was amazing. According to me it's the best movie this year by far and Will Smith's acting is the best I've seen in years. I'm not exaggerating, the man deserves an oscar for this.

great acting by will smith....tho i think he will fall short of an oscar nod. wildly entertaining film with some gut-wrenchingly suspenseful moments as well as one hilariously unintentional moment (anybody remember the zombie circle-jerk?) that left me and my buddies were laughing our asses of.

Read the plot, seen the TV ads....Haven't seen the actual thing but, I'm gonna say that.. I'm 99.9% sure this is only a mediocre, quality-wise, film, that's pretty entertaining with a "wow that's coooool" feeling and that it's gonna do good in the box office.

Heard about it the other day and, from what I heard, it is a good movie. I'll most likely watch it when I get the chance.

TOTALYY BS!!!!!!!!!! Don't waste your time or money on this film. It was bad. I actually think Hitman was better than this. Yes, Smith's acting was good as usual but the movie was totally boring and utter BS from starting to ending. I can't believe the IMDB rating for this movie. I did give it a 5/10 or less. If you want to see this movie........got links to DVD Screener.....like always. (H) PM me if you want to waste your time downloading it. (H)

watched it last night and yeah, its pretty good. very entertaining and Will Smith does a great job (not an awards performance at all though), especially the first hour or so. After the [SPOILERS...] brazilian woman and the kid show up it becomes a very standard zombie movie. the ending is good.

some questions though:
1- How come the brazilian woman didnt know who Bob Marley is, but knew Damian Marley??? That makes no sense at all and I would feel insulted if I was Brazilian.

2- Will Smith had planes and jets (and there was enough fuel we can assume), why did he never fly around or to nearby cities to find other people? I mean, yes, he wanted to be in Ground Zero, but he still put the message on the radios everyday and sat there waiting for people, so why not go out and find them?

3- Why was he so against the idea of going up to Vermont to find the colony of survivors? Why did he firmly believe that the colony wasn't possible? Especially after seeing that the woman and kid showed up (so other survivors was a fact) and again, since he put up that message everyday.

4- How did the woman and the kid get to the island (and how did they get out at the end)? there were no bridges. and how did they save Will Smith? it seemed to be a UV-light bomb, but they didnt have any weapons afterwards when they went to Will's house.

Still... I liked it very much and recommend it (Y)

Finally saw it today. And i gotta say, i didn't like it all that much. Although, i'm just generally not a big fan of zombie or any type of horror movies.

I don't mind zombies being portrayed the way they were, because frankly who the **** knows how they are supposed to look like? Its just like with alieans, maybe there are supposed to be blue, red and purple colour instead of grey, nobody knows. The first time we see zombies, totally looked like one huge mass whack-off. But there were so many stupid things, as pointed before, how the hell did the woman and boy get in and out of the island with their car and why did their light drive away all zombies, but neville's car light and then the big projector lights didn't do anything to them. Then how the hell does the lion and all those animals survive? I mean does he block himself off in some hole as well? Did Neville put Fred near the bridge, set up a trap and then forgot about it or did the zombies do that?

I just didn't like how everything just happened with no explanation provided, what happened to neville's family when the helicopter got spinned? How did the anti-cancer virus ended up spreading? Did it really make it all the way around the world, as in even Nicaragua and Zimbabwe got their hands on some anti-cancer/mutant virus?

Also, Neville said that the zombies show complete and full desocialization, now i don't know how brain works exactly, but i thought that when heart stops brain stops functioning as well, then how come dead and supposedly desocialized zombies were able to think just as well as humans, having dogs on leashes, knowing that light is bad, clearly having leaders and followers in their ranks and working together to achieve some goal. That's some high level socialization sings to me.

Overall, i wasn't too impressed by the movie, Will Smith's performance was pretty good and the movie had some great moments, but a lot of it was very far-fetched and unexplained, like we get put in the middle of the movie and already supposed to know what happened. On top of that i missed the Batman trailer because it took 20 minutes for the concession stand people to cook the damn sausage for my hot dog. Maybe i'm being overly critical, but still they could have clarified things just a bit better.

nice look at it.

couple of things though, the woman's lights that scared away the zombies when she rescues Neville were purple lights, so we can assume it were UV lights that previously showed us killed the zombies. the other lights (neville's car and the projector's) where regular lights.
and when the helicopter spins out of control it crashes with the other chopper so its obvious that Neville's family died right there.
the spreading of the virus around the world really doesnt matter, I mean, its always the same in virus/zombie movies, remember that even animals were infected so if a bird is infected can then travel around the world and infect other animals who would then infect people. I wouldnt question that.

your other points are very good though (Y)

I was questioning the light because it did seem to be very strong when Anna saved Neville, but then how come did they not try to run into her car during the attack. I guess they didn't think they could make it or something.
As for the choppers crashing, they never actually showed that, they just showed one spinning out of control and the other being not too far away from it and then zoom in on Neville's face, but i don't think we heard any fire or sparks or anything. So they could have died or it could have been just an illusion by the directors, like the one when Sam ran into the factory and they showed lots of blood on the floor leading to the nose and mouth of what appeared to be Sam, but then turned out to be a deer.

Like just that kind of things, that they left unexplained, which they could have and wouldn't have destroyed any of the story.

nah, the chopper spinning out of control was going in the ther other chopper's direction and the camera cut right before they crashed.
