I eagerly waited to see this sci-fi movie "I am Legend" that stars Will Smith, and after watching this movie I thought it was indeed worth the excitement, I wasn’t disappointed. Lead actor Will Smith delivers a great acting lead role as an ingenious scientist that discovers a cure that saves the human race from a destructive virus that brings the human race to extinction in its worst form.

Dr. Neville’s dog and animal life are left on the earth as well. The infected humans and animals set a path of destruction and death of any existing life on earth. Dr. Neville’s destructive gadgets seemingly are his only source of self-defense from his inevitable date with death. Moreover, we leave “I am Legend” with a happy climax knowing the legacy, and the true premise, and effectiveness of Dr. Neville’s work.
