Robert Neville, played by Smith, at the beginning of the film. If however, you were simply and completely alone, even the smallest challenges in life would feel almost insurmountable. When I think about the things that would make my life very difficult, such as going blind, losing the use of my hands, or even being paralyzed, it's a horrific thought but the fact of the matter is, all of that could be bearable if you still had love and companionship. When it comes down to it, the movie is about being alone and I think that this is the single most terrifying human fear. There's something about the way the story is told that, while the scenario is highly fantastical, the character is almost painfully relatable. The movie really draws you in and effects you at a deep emotional level. It's gripping and intense and I think, perhaps, Will Smith's greatest performance. I don't think you can really discuss this movie without giving away some I Am Legend spoilers so if you haven't seen this movie yet and really want to go in fresh, don't read any further as it will take away some of the mystery.
