Must See Movie...

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

This is not good movie at all. It as an awful story line. It also has an awful ending. It a remake of a 1964 movie called the last man one earth. Even thou is a very bad movie The last man on earth is worst. Do not see this movie. Do not see The last man on earth. There is a second remake from 2007 called I am Legend. See that one is a great movie. This is horror movie that is not scary at all.

OK, this movie can be entertaining because of Heston. The writing is crap. The cinematography is crap. Just plain awful. The acting was fine. But not great. I saw this movie last year on recommendation that it was good. It's not. It can be entertaining like watching the old TV batman shows. But seriously. It's like a student film. I remember seeing The Last Man on Earth with Vicent Price years ago and that's why I saw this mess. Then I got a copy of The Last Man on Earth, amazing. The dread was there from the beginning to the ending church death scene. That is a great movie. Then I read the book "I am Legend", a great book. Last Man on Earth is close to the book. Then I saw I Am Will Smith, the worst pile of garbage, right along side Fart Wars 7, the Farce Awakens, and Avengers, Thor, and any # of new so called films. I'm not even going to see the Dark Tower, because apparently it has nothing to do with the books, it just takes the names and a few characteristics.So, now onto the Omega Man. Charlton Heston was a fine actor. But he should have had veto power. If you like 60's TV and can forgive the camera work and the garbage writing and just want to see some wild scenes then you may be able to enjoy this. There are some decent scenes here and that is why it's not getting a 1. If I rate it compared to Last Man or the book it would be a negative. I am Will Smith basically takes Hestons Omega Man and builds into some more modern day cartoon show. That is pure crap.Omega Man, rating D, or 3 stars, for some eerie scenes, but mostly boring amateur crap. Better to read the book, or watch Last Man on Earth (disregard the B/W and funky dubbing, the dread is there)

As a result of a virus released during a war between China and the Soviet Union, an army scientist named "Robert Neville" (Charlton Heston) drives along the deserted streets of Los Angeles during the day doing pretty much what he wants because there isn't anyone left alive to stop him. The night, however, belongs to a band of mutants who shun the light and despise him for being one of the few people on Earth who hasn't been affected. So they try to kill him during the night and he does his best to return the favor during periods of daylight. Then one day while inside a clothing store he discovers a young woman named "Lisa" (Rosalind Cash) who appears to be similarly unaffected but runs off before he has the chance to get to talk to her. Needless to say, this changes everything—and not just for him but for everyone else as well. Now from what I understand this film is a remake of the 1964 movie "The Last Man on Earth" which starred Vincent Price in the lead role. That said, having seen both of these films, I would have to conclude that this particular picture is slightly better than its predecessor due in large part to the acting of Charlton Heston who seemed better cast for the role than Vincent Price. Likewise, the fact that this movie probably had more resources to draw may have helped in some degree as well. Be that as it may, I happened to like this particular movie and I have rated it accordingly. Above average.

In 1975, a Sino-Russian global biological war breaks out and military doctor Robert Neville (Charlton Heston) tries an experimental vaccine on himself. He survives a helicopter crash and the plague. He could be the last man on earth. He's barricaded inside his home during the night while the albino mutants roam. The mutants are led by Matthias who is trying to kill him as the last symbol of the scientific past that brought about the disaster. He is captured by Matthias and then rescued by Dutch and Lisa. They belong to a community of young survivors.This movie has two great aspects. First there is the interracial love story which is edgy for its time. Second is the empty streets of L.A. Of course, there was no CGI back then and the streets needed to be emptied for real. As a movie, it's rather slow moving and boring. The acting is a little stiff which Heston does sometimes. It's cheesy without being that much fun. The good stuff isn't enough to overcome its deficiencies.
