: I Am Legend
This is a surprisingly good film. Will Smith is solo most of the screen time and manages to evoke depth of character without dialog and an actor to react with. The story — about the last man on earth — is compelling beyond the gimmicky premise. I wasn’t crazy about the “monster” humans lurking about: they were unrealistic and inconsistent, but they were frightening (all the more so since they used to be human). The bottom line is that this is a film with a gimmick that proves deeper than its subject matter, and Will’s acting is a tour-de-force.
