Will Smith! Although I still think his wife is hotter.

We went to see “I am Legend” Saturday night.  I was expecting fun and lovable Will Smith battling nature which I supposed had taken over NYC. What we saw was freaking scary ass, night stalking, zombie people who had scary ass, night stalking, zombie pit bulls. Whoa! I did not see that coming at all. I watched the whole movie with my hands over my eyes, peeking through my fingers. I squealed several times which of course is not very butch. Honey was quite horrified that  had picked such a movie. She is likening it to the time I drug her to “Open Water”, which is the worst movie I have ever personally picked to go see. I think she exaggerating because of the shock induced by scary ass, night stalking, zombie people.

I don’t want to give away the story but in the ending scene something happens that is definitive. Honey pulls me closer and says “Why did he do that so early in the movie?” Uh I don’t know, I guess the movie will go on to explain this event. No, the movie was over. We had been a watching this movie for almost 2 hours and it felt like 15 minutes. That’s how action packed it was. Wow! I really liked the movie but I am going to have to give it 3 bags of popcorn because:

1. It was not what I was expecting.

2. There were a couple of scenes that were a little too Tom-Hanks-in-Castaway.

3. It was way too short.

4. An animal was injured. ( I can’t help it, I hate movies and books where kids, animals or even cute little aliens get hurt).

Besides all that, it was a great movie. If you are a Will Smith fan you’ll love it. There’s a  scene where Will is doing pull ups- my gawd the body on that man. I did however have a little trouble getting past the fact that in the movie he was graying quite a bit.. It made me feel very old. I can still sing “Parents Just Don’t Understand”like it was 1988. Ugh.
