Entertaining remake

Vincent Price had the lead role in "The Last Man on Earth," an interesting 1965 interpretation that includes zombie/
vampire-like creatures. Charlton Heston gave a convincing turn in the popular 1971 version. Now comes Will Smith. He does an admirable job of conveying his character's plight. Scenes between Smith and his dog are very affecting. However, the film misses a bet by giving us fairly uninteresting CGI monsters instead of worthy villains for him to play against. As is, Smith carries the picture well enough to make it entertaining.
