I Am Legend had been garnering only decent buzz - until this new trailer surfaced out of the blue. Smith plays Robert Neville, sole survivor of New York and sole hope for the human race…after all humankind becomes virus-carrying zombie-monsters. Neville has no idea why he’s immune to the vicious virus, but he plans on using his non-effected self to restore order to the human race.
That’s all fine and dandy, as long as it gives moviegoers a reason to throw down some change.
Let’s face it: the fall movie season has been terrible, with unremarkable flicks cropping up every week. A movie like I Am Legend is just what moviegoers (and the industry) need for an action-starved season. For action buffs that fancy a bit of build-up before a massive blow-out, the trailer for I Am Legend relies on slow, driven tension more than a quick fix of gratuitous explosions and caffeinated editing - though there are plenty of those as well. I Am Legend will be in theaters December 14.
I am officially excited to see this movie - and you should be too.
