I Am Legend (2007)
Movie: I Am Legend (2007)
“Robert Neville is a scientist who was unable to stop the spread of the terrible virus that was incurable and man-made. Immune, Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City and perhaps the world. For three years, Neville has faithfully sent out daily radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. But he is not alone. Mutant victims of the plague — The Infected — lurk in the shadows… watching Neville’s every move… waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Perhaps mankind’s last, best hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But he knows he is outnumbered… and quickly running out of time. Written by Warner Bros. Pictures”

Trivia: While doing a press conference in Japan for the release of the movie, Will Smith accidentally revealed the ending to a collection of entertainment reporters. Warner Brothers asked the reporters and all those present to withhold the ending and the reporters all obliged without any payoff or consideration.
Goofs: Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Robert Neville tells Anna that there were 6 billion people on Earth, 90 percent were killed by KV outright (5.4 billion) and that there was one percent immunity. From that he arrived at twelve million immune and 588 million dark seekers. However, if calculated from the 600 million remaining (the ten percent that did not die outright) one percent would be six million, not twelve million, leaving 594 million dark seekers, not 588 million. The numbers he arrives at would be correct with 2 percent immunity.
