I am Legend


Rented this movie on Sunday night. I've never read the book, and apparently its a little different from the book, but all in all not a bad movie. I mean I had my sub turned up too loud and so it shook the walls a little. It was a little too scary for Elisabeth at times, but had a couple of parts in it that were pretty neat.

Will Smith thinks he is the last man on earth, trying to find a cure for a disease that was created years earlier as a cure for cancer. It ended up killing off most of the world, and leaving those who hadn't died already in a almost zomby like state. A woman and her son find him, and through some cricumstances suggest that God had sent them there. She says that the world was to noisey but now that its quieter its alot easier to here God. Smith balks at the idea. Near the end of the movie he's realized they have the cure for the disease, but are cornered. He sees a butterfly tattoo on the ladies neck. His daughter always talked about butterflies earlier in the movie. He hands her soem blood with the cure in it, sends her off to take it to others who are alive and goes to die while saving them. She says no, but he looks at her and says "I'm listening".

So neat to me to see a movie talk so loudly about God working amongst us all in day to day things. That there are so many signs and times God wants to talk to us yet we let the "noise" of this world get in the way.

What did you miss today? How is God going to speak to you tomorrow? Will you listen?
