Will Smith – The good guy
December 17, 2007I like Will Smith. Happy to see him being described as the best good guy around in Hollywood. Cnn writes about him here on his latest blockbuster I AM LEGEND. Story of i am legend is interesting. A virus breaksout and kills 90% of world population instantly in 2009. 1% of the surviors are immune and 9% become infected but lose their human touch. Will Smith is the only survior and he develops the cure. Story ends in 2012. Will smith’s daughter has acted in this movie.
