Standards aren't high for movies these days. I think its the fact that Hollywood has crammed so much second-rate, regurgitated crap down the pipe lately that people have become justifiably jaded and skeptical.
Yes, the movie DID have its moments - the scenes of a desolate New York were well done and Smith carried the movie fairly well (like Hanks had to in Castaway).
But like several have pointed out - why the insults to our collective intelligence by leaving us to feel gullible with the logic gaps...when some things could have been easily explained with a few simple lines of dialogue, had the filmmakers cared to spend a little more time with the details.

Well, you weren't there, I was. Don't take it so personally. Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean I'm calling you retarded.
I was referring to the idiots in the bathroom, who to me, are a good barometer for the average movie-going public.
"so that dummy was real? How did he get outside?"
"He shoulda banged that chick, yo"
During the movie, people were laughing at the "Please talk to me" scene, which was not deliberately funny. There just happened to be a lot of idiots in that showing, no doubt drawn in by Will Smith, but they weren't ready for something semi-cerebral.
