With Will Smith playing the last human survivor of a virus in New York City (and possibly the world), one might wonder how exciting could this film really get. But do not despair, he might be the last
human, but he's definitely not alone. He soon finds that the virus has transformed everyone else into nocturnal zombie-like creatures. And this is where the fun begins.
Will Smith is the most likeable actor in Hollywood, and he really shines here. Being able to act on your own with only a dog as a companion requires tremendous acting skill, and he pulls it off. And once the action begins, he is more than capable of holding his own. The tone of the movie manages a delicate balancing act, from a creepily tense few scares it will take you to a heartbreakingly poignant moment, and then it manages to pull the rug out from under you and take you back to the edge of your seat.
A thrill ride of the highest calibre, and the first real blockbuster of 2008. (5 out of 5, by Carlisle Johnson)
Robert Neville (Smith) is a brilliant scientist, but even he could not contain the terrible virus that was unstoppable, incurable, and man-made. Somehow immune, Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City and maybe the world.
For three years, Neville has faithfully sent out daily radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. But he is not alone. Mutant victims of the plague - "The Infected" - lurk in the shadows...watching Nevile's every move...waiting for him to make a fatal mistake.
Perhaps mankin's last, best hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But he knows he is outnumbered...and quickly running out of time.
