Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
When they do, banging their heads against plate glass as movie zombies always do, I started needing something else to think about.
I wouldn't dream of giving away the ending, but it's not likely to satisfy either the action crowd or Matheson fans.
I Am Legend is a grenade that goes off when least expected. It has more horror than heart, but it is never boring.
So often, sci-fi is overproduced, but I Am Legend doesn't look like a CGI extravaganza. It looks like an edgy suspense movie shot on the fly in New York City after the fall. And because of that, it's all the more effective.
