Warner Home Video
Release date: Tuesday 18th of March 2008
Starring: Willow Smith, Will Smith, Alice Braga, Salli Richardson-Whitfield, Charlie Tahan, This time, Smith plays Robert Neville, the last man on an Earth emptied by a deadly virus that he continues to try and find a working vaccine for. With just his dog for company, and the fear of the vampires that haunt the night never far away, I Am Legend quickly establishes itself as a taut, highly watchable blockbuster, with plenty of reasons to gnaw at your nail. Where I Am Legend really scores is in the excellent first half. The scenes of a deserted New York are quite staggering, and it’s also to Smith’s immense credit that he holds the attention even though for the most part he’s the only person on the screen. It’s a quite wonderful opening hour that the film enjoys, and one that easily stands repeat viewings alone. The back half of I Am Legend is, almost inevitably, not quite the match of what’s gone before, as the threats of the night don’t, when you finally see them, live up to expectations. Nonetheless, for Smith’s performance, and the sheer quality of the build up, I Am Legend can stand side-by-side with the last take on the story, the Charlton Heston-starrer The Last Man On Earth. Take either home, and you’re in for a rollicking good night in front of the telly. --Jon Foster
Editorial
Amazon.co.uk Review
A mainstream Hollywood actor who seems committed to igniting science fiction features, Will Smith chalked up another sizeable hit in the shape of I Am Legend, the latest cinematic adaptation of Richard Matheson’s book of the same name.
Excellent

The best case you'll find in the market, but there are two problems regarding this product. One of them, actually, appears in 95% of the DVDs: the region lock. The second is the lack of subtitle options. Come on, subtitle files are so small, please give us more options.
Back to the region lock thing, I understand the reasons for the companies to use it, but some editions are not available everywhere. I live in Brazil, and I can find this movie for a reasonable price here, but NOT IN STEELBOOK. Now I bought this one, but can't play it in either my DVD player or my PS3 (they're both Sony's and Sony products can not be unlocked via firmware). So I'll buy another player to watch my imported movies, or either make copies of my movies and my friends', which would be piracy.

I Am Legend (Ws Dub Sub Ac3 Dol) [Blu-ray] [2007] [US Import] [Region A] Reviews
Yes. I agree.
Review date: 2010-03-01 Rating: 8 out of 10
The first half of the film was quite a nerve racking beginning and the pace built and built after.
However, the pace was far too quick and in the second half of the film, it was felt that the story was rushed. They had a good idea but felt they needed to wrap it up quickly which was always going to have a negative impact.
The world created here, though, is extemely perceptive and engaging and the first time you glimpse the monster (not a spoiler- there are obviously monsters in the film), you do feel fear for Robert Neville, who was played brilliantly by Will Smith. Moreover, the film, as an action film ticked the boxes, but not as a horror. It was as though the first half was horror and the second action. I would have prefered horror all the way as the scene created was perfect to do so.
In summary, it was a great film, let down by a hasty plot and underdeveloped enemies.
Uncomfortable viewing

This film grabbed mis cojones and held on until the very end, which is probably why I didn't enjoy it much - that is to say for its entertainment value, though as a horror movie it certainly did its job! There were a few glaring holes in the storyline, but hey, that's Hollywood. The book (I think) dates to the 1950's and is supposed to be excellent?
He is so-so
Review date: 2009-10-21 Rating: 6 out of 10
In many respects this is little more than a star vehicle and although Smith gives a strong enough performance as the gun-toting, iron-pumping hero he is never convincing as the desperate scientist trying to save the human race. As the third film version of Richard Matheson's novel this movie strays pretty far from the original material, but that's par for the course with Hollywood adaptations. Some of Neville's personal torment is retained and Smith portrays this well, but apart from this and the basic premise there is little from the book that remains. On the other hand they've shoehorned in a bunch of flashbacks that are clunky and largely superfluous. That said this is entertaining when considered simply as a thrill ride, and the depiction of New York city as an overgrown, derelict ghost town is particularly well realised.
Never read the book first
Review date: 2009-10-05 Rating: 8 out of 10
I enjoyed this film but as is often the case having read the book on which its based years ago I can't help thinking that somehow the plot of the film focuses on different aspects of the scenario compared to the book. Such is life and film making.
I have to say I felt the ending appeared to have been made in a bit of a rush. Nice film anyway and bought at a very fair price.
