I am Legend, a review by addicted2dvd

I am Legend
The last man on earth is not alone. Will Smith plays that lone survivor in 'I Am Legend', the action epic fusing heart-pounding excitement with a mind-blowing vision of a desolate Manhattan. Somehow immune to an unstoppable, incurable virus, military virologist Robert Neville (Smith) is now the last human survivor in New York City and maybe the world. Mutant plague victims lurk in the shadows...watching Neville's every move...waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find an antidote using his own immune blood. But he knows he is outnumbered...and quickly running out of time.

My Thoughts:
This is a movie a good friend gave me as an early Christmas gift this past week. This is one of those movies I have seen before... but not since it was first released on DVD when my sister-in-law got it and brought it over for me to watch. But that has been a while so I went into this one not remembering all that much about the movie. I did enjoy this movie quite a bit... but that is without reading the book and never seen Omega Man. I have however seen Last Man on Earth with Vincent Price. I did have a problem with this movie though. Even though it was really enjoyable... the CGI creatures did take away from it for me a bit.

My PILOT Marathon, a review by Rich

ROSWELL - SEASON ONE - PILOT



Premiered: October 6, 1999
Liz Parker learns Max Evans' out-of-this-world secret when he saves her life, and he must now rely on her to safeguard his secret as an orphaned extraterrestrial.   

American slop, and the worst export of it's kind. After watching some great Hollywood pilots, this bought me back to earth with a bump, truly dreadful in all regards. Ridiculous storyline, possibly the worst wooden lead actor I've ever seen (in this role anyway), horrendous and brain numbingly dull characters!
3 'aliens' drop down from space, imitate humans, fall in love with beautiful college girl, save her life with his healing hands after being shot,  - PLEASE!!!
