Also the locations looked genuinally amazing with the weeds growing through the ground. There was a few areas that lacked but I felt it had almost a castaway feel to it, with Will Smith portraying the secluded feelings brilliantly in the first half.

I wouldn't say it's oscar worthy or anything but my respect for will smith's fair growing as he's a brilliant actor and from the scenes where he's exercising it's obvious he puts alot of work into his roles.
PISH! have any of you read the book or the comic? i have. these people had SUCH a good story to work with, truly amazing and then they butchered it! robert neville was a middle aged white man who lived in suberban america, he never died in a glorious heroic battle with the (totaly ripped stright of of 28 days later) infected humans, he was exicuted by half breeds, half breeds you say?!?! YES half breed, THE MAIN PART OF THE FUCKING STORY, that hollywood decided to leave out and make a brilliant story into another pile of Zombie shite.




Truly gutting.




(apart from the names of both the film and will smith, what else was the same as the orignal story?)

I thought the first half of the film was great, a true sense of isolation, the film had a great build up but it was an anit-climax in the second half, where you start seeing the monster things, wouldnt say they were zombies like

This sums up my thoughts on the film quite well, so I'm going to quote it to reinforce it.
