"The last man on Earth is not alone"
Overview
Robert Neville is a scientist who was unable to stop the spread of the terrible virus that was incurable and man-made.

For three years, Neville has faithfully sent out daily radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. But he is not alone.

It just wasn't what it was supposed to be.
The source material was pretty amazing. Richard Matheson was on a pretty high horse when he wrote it and it came out as a pretty philosophical masterpiece in the way that only science fiction can.
It examined something and then it took that examination and turned it into a story... like science fiction should.
But "I Am Legend" just sort of examines Will Smith and the philosophical musings that made the source material great took a back seat to special effects and monsters and Smith.
It could have been something that people are still talking about instead of something people forgot.
