If you’re looking to commemorate the moonwalk—the original moonwalk, that is—on July 20, look not to the stars but to your DVD vendor, and pick up a copy of Al Reinert’s magnificent For All Mankind (1989). The filmmaker contributed to the scripts of Apollo 13 (1995) and the HBO miniseries From the Earth to the Moon (1998), but this isn’t standard docudrama, not that those two accounts are unworthy of phrase. In one of the supplements on this newly remastered Criterion Collection disc

I Am Legend Blu ray




Robert Neville is a brilliant scientist, but even he could not contain the terrible virus that was unstoppable, incurable, and man-made. Somehow immune, Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City and maybe the world. For three years, Neville has faithfully sent out daily radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. But he is not alone. Mutant victims of the plague — The Infected — lurk in the shadows… watching Neville’s every move… waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Perhaps mankind’s last, best hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But he knows he is outnumbered… and quickly running out of time.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Digital Copy
I thought the movie was great. One bit of information that isn’t listed though is that the Digital copy only works on Windows. I have a Mac and can’t access that or any of the other computer-only special features. Just a heads up.

5 Stars Looks great!
Good movies on Blu-ray are just such excellent keepsakes. I Am Legend looks super-good.

4 Stars A Great Movie
Will Smith is once more playing a role that can really suite him. While not a comedy, he does pull off the serious role required in I Am Legend.

While this movie does lose something the second time watched, the movie is still rewatchable and a good addition to any movie collection, whether you love Will Smith, Suspense, or just a movie buff.

5 Stars Very Interesting Movie…
Powerful performance, as expected, by Wil Smith. Original plot and great acting make it a must see horror/action movie. A must see of any Will Smith fan. I was very pleased with my purchase.

3 Stars Luney toons!
It would seem like a good idea to use CG for the monsters in this flick. I mean this way you can make them faster and do things guy’s in suits just can’t do. But to me they looked like lunatic cartoons, and it took me right out of the fantasy. I’ve seen cheesy movies based off VIDEO GAME’S with better effects. Will Smith is basically a national treasure at this point and deservedly so. The film has some very moody scenes and is shot beautifully. But didn’t we watch this film for the monsters? I did. And I thought they sucked.

I Robot Blu ray




In the year 2035, technology and robots are a trusted part of everyday life. But that trust is broken when a scientist is found dead and a skeptical detective (Smith) believes that a robot is responsible. Bridget Moynahan co-stars in this high-tech action thriller that questions whether technology will ultimately lead to mankind’s salvation . . . or annihilation.

4 Stars I,robot
‘I, Robot’ features very good quality 1080p/AVC-encoded transfer,I may as well begin at the opening titles and the real kicker is how pristine the image actually is.It’s quite simply delivers one of the best transfers I’ve ever seen.I couldn’t believe how realistic it all sounded. Just listen to the pouncing robots, the engines throttling against the road.

5 Stars Great Action Adventure!
A top notch crew does a wonderful job of bringing the essence of Isaac Asimov’s robot stories to life. The acting and directing are great, even more amazing considering that much of the filming was done using blue-screen backgrounds and stand-ins for the robots, who were created later using computer generated figures. Bridget Moynahan pulled off her role brilliantly. She became a scientist involved in a puzzling crime, instead of looking like a strident feminist or a hot bod mouthing lines she didn’t understand. Will Smith was amazing and fluid as always. Even the minor (human) characters sparkled.

2 Stars Oops
I have the movie in full screen. I wanted a wide screen version to play on my computer lcd monitor.

Oops!! it quit playing about halfway through.

Tested on a stand alone DVD player same thing.

Dispointed…

5 Stars I Liked It!
I read “I, Robot” as a teenager and loved it. They changed quite a few things, but I was not disappointed by this movie because I felt they retained the true essence of the book. I was very moved by the robots protection of humans. I think Will Smith did a good job. I really liked the computer-generated robots. Their humanity really came through. Even though they deviated a lot from the original book, I would recommend this, even for big fans of Isaac Asimov.

5 Stars I Robot on Blu Ray DVD
This movie is spectacular….i got it for 17.99. You wont be disappointed. Audio is incredible.
