    This movie is bad, and here's why: 1)The thrills are better in any James Bond movie, and much much better in movies like Matrix. 2)It starts as a believable thriller, but soon degenerates into a wierd fantasy (can you imagine a bullet going around in a wide circle, killing 5 people, and then returning to the shooter?) Is this movie for grownups really? 3)This movie makes everyone use an embarrassing and needless number of 4 letter curses. The actors look uncomfortable and seem to be begging for some good dialogues instead. Even veteran actors like Morgan Freeman are not spared, which gives the movie a very cheap feel. 4)Overuse of camera effects like zoom and slow motion -- usually amateurs do this! 5)There are many scenes where you will want to ask 'why', but there are no answers. 6)SPOILER ALERT: How many major Hollywood movies have you seen that end with a lead actor committing suicide? (And we're not talking of the bad guy!!)

    I'm going to reply to every single of your close minded comments: 1) James Bond sux... this movie has the good special effects needed, you can't compare old movies with new movies 2) You've watched trailer before you go right? In the trailer it clearly shows u that the bullet will bend, the trailer prepared you for it and you call this a wierd degenerated movie?!?! 3) It's an 18A movie... I was expecting that! And they didn't overuse it, and the movie warned of bad language used. There was NOT TOO MUCH!! And the actor was suppose to look uncomfortable, it was the ROLE he was playing. 4) ZOOM AND SLOW MOTION WERE ENTIRELY PART OF THE MOVIE... without the effects how do you know whats going on. Bullets fly pretty fast you know. If you can't take the special effect, than stick with your old James Bond movie. 5) Thats just because you didn't understand the movie. Three of us went, and we all understood it and thought it was good. 6) The reason Fox dies in the end shows her loyalty to the Fertinity. Don't rant about the movie if you didn't understand it.

    Excuse me sir, but this is not the Titanic that you went to watch... it is simply an out of ordinary thriller full of action like the Matrix, so this movie is not recommended for those who does not like this type of films... PS. When the movie was over... everyone clapped their hands in the theater... guess that means the movie was bad!!! Heh...

    In I am Legend the lead actor kills himself... SPOILER ALERT:she had to kill herself because she believes in "Kill one save a thousand" and her name came up on the thread thing, and she couldn't just contradict herself.

    As I started watching this film I started hating it. When I realized what it was about and how they were able to get the so called bullet to do what it did, it then dawned on me that this was definitely a unique film. I think you are judging harshly without really considering what the premise was. Sometimes it takes a bit of fantasy to deliver some reality. Like the end... what have you done lately besides giving a movie a 2?

    I agree with everyone that replied. [...] Try looking at what kind of movie you are going to see before you see it, then maybe you will understand it. OMG!!!

    mcneil@  30.6.2008 age: 36-49

    Well said! I gave it a 6 out of 10 ONLY BECAUSE the special effects were really amazing. The story and dialogue were embarrassing and hard to watch.

    Sorry, I forgot to include this: A bullet brushing past Angelina's hair in a curved motion is cool. But going thru the heads of 5 people and coming back in a circle is unbelievable. Remember how Reeves bends back to dodge the bullets in Matrix? That was cool, that was believable fantasy! But suppose he had vanished into thin air suddenly and appeared somewhere else, that would have been unreal stuff!

    Agree Niyokin. It's pretty bad when several people are laughing in scenes that clearly aren't supposed to be funny. But after a certain point in the film "wish-it-was-good" fatigue sets in and people just start entertaining themselves in any way they can. I found out it's based on a comic AFTER seeing it which only convinces me the producer/director missed the mark all that much more.
