It is a good time to feel lonely at the cinema this week.

Themes of separation, loss and learning to live with one’s lot in life run strong through the three big releases.

Whether it is the forced separation from one’s husband (as in Things We Lost In The Fire), parents (as in August Rush) or the entire human race (as in I Am Legend) there is plenty of soul-searching going on.

All three films look like they will speak directly to the heart in one way or another.

Probably heart-wrenchingly moving (as in Things We Lost In The Fire), heart-warmingly touching (as in August Rush) and heart-stoppingly exciting (as in I Am Legend) .

Having already seen the advanced UAE screening earlier this week, Time Out can recommend Will Smith’s I Am Legend.

One of the few films that manages to combine box-office appeal with art-house ethics it is a curious thing: A thought-provoking zombie movie.
