    I Am Legend  (2007)

    Man, I was so hoping that the anticipation I had built up waiting for this film to be released on dvd would somehow make me like the film more than I knew I would. "I Am Legend" is one of my all time favorite books, and knowing the general rule that the book is almost always better than the film, I was still hoping this remake would really do the book justice. So much for hoping. I really enjoyed the Vincent Price version of the "Last Man on Earth", and thought that it was fairly close to the book in all regards. Too bad someone thought it would be a great idea to stray so far from the already magnificent book and previous remakes. Some things are just better left alone. The cgi zombies were a huge disappointment as was the ending (I haven't seen the alternate ending). I knew the ending already and it was such a shocker that it made the book so memorable and an instant favorite. So tragic and desperate. Too bad Hollywood got ahold of this story and made it nothing more than a PG-13 money sucking machine.
