I liked the spiritual themes but I wished they would have been better developed towards the begining rather than with Anna's random remark at the end "God told me to..."

I thought the book had a cool plot and made sense with the title I Am Legend, where as this movie doesnt develop Neville as a "legend" per se.
Yeah, the title "I am Legend" does not fit the movie. The movie is so different from the book. That is not bad; I actually like the movie a lot. But the title does not fit.
