A 28 days later Remake

This was probably the second most anticipated movie last year, next to the golden compass. I really was looking forward to a legendary movie, but then I ended up seeing just a duplicate of 28 days later. The only difference is that I am Legend uses CG for its infected flesh eating zombies. And by using computer graphics it made the zombies look fake and less believable; which sets it apart from 28 days who has real people with prosthetic makeup. We all know realness is a big factor to this kind of genre, it is its bread and butter. Also I really did not feel the solitude of Will Smith, unlike the feel of Cillian Murphy in 28 days later which really gives you an empty feeling inside. Which we can blame the sound editing for giving it a dreary ambiance. Overall I think it’s a good enough popcorn movie like 6-7’ish out of 10.
