Plot
After the spread of a lethal virus,U.S.Army virologist Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville (Will Smith) is left as the last healthy human in New York City,and possibly the entire world.
The story opens in 2012,and a series of flashbacks and recorded news programs reveal that three years earlier a genetically re-engineered measles virus,known as the KV virus,was originally created as a cure for cancer,mutated into a lethal strain,similar to rabies,which rapidly infected humans and some animal species.By the end of the first year following the infection,more than 90% of the planet's human population died; over 9% were infected,but did not die.These survivors degenerated into a primal,aggressive state,lost all their hair and began to react painfully to UV radiation,forcing them to hide in buildings and other dark places during the day.The remaining 1% were immune to the virus,but were hunted and killed by the infected,killed by fellow survivors or commit suicide due to isolation.Three years after the outbreak,Robert Neville fears he may be the last healthy human in the world.
In a Manhattan devoid of humanity,Neville's daily routine includes experimentation to find a cure for the virus on both infected rats and humans,and trips through the city to hunt for food and forage for supplies.He waits each day for a response to his automated,continuous radio broadcasts,which instruct any uninfected survivors to meet him at midday at the South Street Seaport.Flashbacks reveal that his wife and daughter died during the chaotic evacuation of Manhattan,just prior to the militarily-enforced quarantine of the island in 2009.Neville's isolation is broken only by the companionship of his dog Samantha ("Sam"),interaction with mannequins he has set up as patrons of a video store,and recordings of old news and entertainment broadcasts.
Neville seems to find a promising treatment derived from his own blood when one of the rats he is experimenting on begins to regain normal appearance and behaviour,so he sets a snare trap and captures an infected woman while an infected male watches from within a building,unable to enter the sunlight of the day.At his laboratory,located in the basement of his heavily-fortified home,Neville treats the infected woman without success.Later,while driving through New York,he notices one of the mannequins has been moved.When he inspects it,he is ensnared in a trap similar to the one he used to capture the woman.By the time Neville escapes,it is near dark and he is attacked by infected dogs (released by the infected Alpha Male),one of which bites Sam.Although Sam is unaffected by the airborne strain of the virus,she can still be infected by the contact strain.
Neville takes Sam home and injects her with a serum,in the hope of saving her,but when she shows signs of infection and tries to attack him,Neville,distraught with grief,strangles Sam,putting her out of her misery.He buries her the next day.The same night,overcome with grief and anger,he goes out and attacks a large group of infected with his SUV.Despite inflicting severe casualties on the infected,he is nearly killed,but is rescued by a pair of immune survivors,Anna Montez (Alice Braga) and a young boy named Ethan (Charlie Tahan),who have traveled from Maryland after hearing one of Neville's broadcasts.They take the injured Neville back to his home where Anna explains that they survived the outbreak aboard a Red Cross evacuation ship from São Paulo and are making their way to a rumored survivors' camp in Bethel,Vermont.Initially dismissive of Anna,Robert begins to warm to her as he remembers how to interact with humans.
The next night a group of infected鈥攚ho have followed Anna and Neville and are led by the Alpha Male鈥攁ttack the house,overrunning its defenses.Neville,Anna,and Ethan retreat into the basement laboratory,sealing themselves in with the infected woman Neville has been treating.Discovering that the last treatment has been successful and the infected woman is once again human,Neville draws a vial of the woman's blood and gives it to Anna.He pushes Anna and Ethan into an old coal chute,and then sacrifices himself to save their lives,using a hand grenade to kill himself and the attacking infected.
Anna and Ethan escape to Vermont,and locate the survivors' colony,where Anna hands over the cure.In the closing voice-over,she states that Neville's cure enabled humanity to survive and rebuild,establishing his legend.
[edit] Alternate ending
The tone of the film's ending was altered dramatically before the film's release,with the majority of the changes made to the standoff between Neville and the infected survivors in his laboratory.Visual effects supervisor Janek Sirrs recounts the original ending starting with the standoff:"At that point,Neville's鈥攁nd the audience's鈥攁ssumptions about the nature of these creatures are shown to be incorrect.We see that they have actually retained some of their humanity.There is a very important moment between the Alpha Male and Neville." David Schaub stated,"Then,when Neville finally turns the Alpha Female over to the Alpha Male,there is this little love moment between the two of them." The infected then retrieve the captured female and spare Neville's life.The original final shot follows Neville,Anna and Ethan as they cross the remnants of the George Washington Bridge in hopes of finding other survivors,accompanied by a recording from Anna telling survivors that there is hope.[5]
