One of my all time favorite movies is I Am Legend mainly because the star of the film is Will Smith and he is one of my favorite actors, even though he is my favorite actor, the movie was still great. The movie starts out as everybody evacuating the city of Manhattan, and he is saying goodbye to his wife and son because he has to stay because he is a U.S. Army Officer and it is his duty. Then it moves on to show that he is the only one basically left in the city, he drives around does whatever he can or wants to do and he is always searching for someone. He eventually finds these monster-like things that he believes were once human and in many scenes you get to see him run from them. Every time it becomes dark these monsters attack and throughout the movie he tries to study them and figure out what happened to the world that exact day and why he is alone. The main character is Will Smith and overall I think he was the best person to play the role of being stranded alone in an empty world, and the only other character that’s in the movie a lot is his dog which is a great actor and he is always with him where ever he goes. During the movie you notice Will Smith has one trait that sticks out a lot and that’s that he is very brave in many scenes, one scene is when he has to let his wife and son go while he stays in a city that will soon be gone. I think one of the best themes for this movie would be sacrifice, in the ending scene Will Smith has to give up something to gain something else and in life you will have to do that a lot and this movie portrays it well. I agree with most of the critics they gave it a very good rating because the movie was made that it almost seemed real, but also agree with them when they say it was made a little unrealistic when the monster-like things came in play because it reminded them of a Sci-Fi movie. Overall this movie is definitely worth your time and money, it is a movie that will keep you interested and wondering all the way throughout.

I Am Legand is avery good example of a character driven movie! Even though though there are only just two main characters they perform very well in this movie. Will Smith's Character kinda show to be a little bit mysterious in the beginning but at the end quickly shows his true colors of who his is and his view on the whole situation about the virus that has taken over most of the world. One of the good things about this movie is that it keeps it's suspense very well and doesn't giveaway the parts that make you wonder the most about and throw all the action at you in one scene. It is smooth and has very good character driven transistions throughout the movie. I personally love! this movie, for some reason, even though it's fictional it seems to teach a lesson to never give up and that their is more hope at the end of every situation no matter how tough or difficult that it may be.
