Spoiler about the end of the book and movie:
[SPOILER]At the end of the book, Neville realizes that his killing people while they sleep makes him very similar to mythical vampires that killed people while they slept. He finally realizes he is now a legend, similar to the vampires. At the end of the movie, Col. Neville never considers himself a legend. The people who he saved at the end of the movie consider him a legend, but the title of the movie isn't "He Is Legend," it's "I Am Legend," and since Col. Neville never referred to himself as such (unlike Neville in the book), it makes the title make less sense.[/SPOILER]

Yeah, I completely agree. I actually found the enemies to be kind of amusing rather than frightening... after I saw what they looked like. XD]...he had to kill his one and only friend, Sam. And afterwards started trying to talk to the mannequins in that store. Normally I'd laugh if I saw someone do that in a movie, but Will Smith pulled it off and made the entire scene serious. .__. Man, it was so sad.[/spoiler]the_wolfs_howl wrote:The only thing I didn't really like was how unrealistic the CG was. I have a big problem with that kind of thing (got spoiled after my first real encounter with realistic CG - LotR's Gollum). And it would've been even creepier if they hadn't shown the enemies till basically the very end (like in Signs, where you only get the most fleeting glimpses through most of the movie). It's a universal fact that people are afraid of the unknown, so when you can't see what's threatening you though you know it's there, it's much more frightening than any old zombie yelling at you. I actually thought the zombies' intelligence level made some sense. I sort of got the impression (though no one in the movie confirmed this, so I might be wrong) that they were slowly losing human intelligence and becoming more bestial, but they got occasional spurts of near-human intelligence, such as when the leading antagonist made that trap for Neville.

'[GMOD wrote:Vedicardi']As for the "healed" girl being the Alpha's "special someone," I doubt it. Mainly because that wasn't how he found out where Lt. was in the first place, and besides that, if that was his main priority, he would have went straight for the lab, and wouldn't have bother going after Lt.

'[GMOD wrote:Vedicardi (post: 1190395)']I personally thought the kinda religious element seemed a bit rushed and thrown in. But that's just me. Everything else was epic. I tried not to think of how the zombies (nightstalkers) thought. If I had, I probably wouldn't have enjoyed the movie as much.

[spoiler]He was clearly waiting for an opportunity to find him and was at the head of all of the attacks against Neville. It was the alpha that laid the trap, the alpha that led the charge, and the alpha that smashed against the glass. He definitely had a grudge.[/spoiler]
