made sense for his character arc...there needed to be some kind of redemption for letting the virus spread. The scene in the lab at the end really fit(and was well done also, with the silence and music). If he lived, I would have been pissed.

people were pissed that the woman and child showed up in the last third, but for me, it made the movie better. I wasn't expecting it, and those two characters were necessary to bring the story to its conclusion. Sure, there's holes in the story, such as distribution of cure, how did Ana get into manhattan if the bridges were all blown, etc...but some disbelief has to be suspended. Jesus.

Standards are so fucking high for movies these days, even from people who have no business being critics. When I was in the men's room after seeing Legend, there about 10 morons in there dissing on it, with the most idiotic critiques I've ever heard. They just sounded like retards, and it made me realize that any movie that requires the slightest amount of thought is rejected. Not that it was a Kubrick film, but the movie was a cut above the standard multiplex horse shit.
