Scoring System:
To reviewers: please use teh stars, thnx
It was meant to be comedy, but the sarcastic and slapstick “humour” (I use the term lightly here) is terribly predictable. The characters have no personality, I found Garfield extremely annoying, and the animation sucked.
I give it 0 out of 5. I’m not doing this to be mean, I’m serious. This movie is horrible. A total waste of money. Do not see it.

Okay, time to reveiw a new film...
I am Legend (2007):
A virus spreads across the world and makes people into Infected savage beings that turn others into Infected beings by biting them. The last man on Earth tries to find medical supplies and survivors. Wow, I’ve only heard that about a million times in my entire life, how original.
Okay, so I’m being sarcastic. My point is that this movie is just a cliche, like any other Infected cannibal (or in this case Vampire) movie. I know the book was written in 1954 where it would have been original, but to realease it in these times isn’t a good idea.
Now onto the actors/actresses. Will Smith was good and his dog was very well trained, but some of the other survivors weren’t very convinving in acting scared. I wanted a lot of them to get killed by the vampires. That’s another good thing about this movie, the vampires. They kicked ass and looked really evil. Also, the city looks very empty so they did a good job of making Will Smith looking like one of the last men on Earth and I myself found the city kinda creepy.
Anyway, there was one original thing about this movie, the concept of there being (supposedly) the last man on Earth. The attempts at suspense were actually quite good with the music, lighting and vampires. The ending was shitty though and I could have easily seen an easier solution to the characters solutions than the ones they took.
I give this film 3/5.
EDIT: Just fixing some spelling/grammar mistakes.

Presentation
The story starts out with Sweeny Todd singing on a ship, but trust me, the movie is too good to get mad at that. At the beginning you’ll also be asking many questions. There is this really creepy town with tons of weird actors in it. Some may even make you laugh . 4.5/5
Audio and Picture
The audio has to be good, which it is because of all the singing parts. The grayish look really fits this movie well. The voice acting for most of the characters is really quite good. 4.5/5
Acting
This movie has great acting from Johny Depp and the rest of the cast. They also seem grayish and like they have no feelings, which works with this movie very well. 4/5
Overall
Well, this movie is superb, even though it is a musical. At the end everyone dies, not gonna tell you how though. This movie is astonishing.
