The new work "Love and Monsters" by Dylan O'Brien, who hasn't seen him for a long time, has once again fallen into the apocalypse and started again as a rookie, but this time the theme is love.
~~Spoiler dividing line~~~
At the beginning of the story, the male protagonist is out of the shelter for love A shelter for survival, a "pseudo-father and daughter" who rely on each other to fight monsters, a puppy who has lost its owner and lives alone, an intelligent robot that retains its power and continues to shine for human beings... One by one, it shows everything that may exist in the apocalypse Warmth, I don't think it's the younger age that some film critics say, but it is for people to see hope and light in a harsh environment. It is very suitable to launch such a movie under the current global epidemic.
The highlight of the movie is the seemingly conventional story, but it is not conventional. The growth and changes of the male protagonist, especially the emotional changes with the female protagonist, are reasonable and unexpected, very natural and smooth. The feelings of "we" are rendered sincere and touching at the end, and some of the small foreshadowings buried in the early stage are also withdrawn one by one with the progress of the plot, exuding warm and wonderful little highlights throughout the whole process. It can be said to be a small fresh masterpiece this year.
Dylan O'Brien's lean, tough physique, coupled with his gentle, determined looks, is perfect for this type of role. The Asian actress Jessica Henwick, who has a high appearance rate in recent years, seems to have gone from the swordsman in the Marvel series "Iron Fist" and "Defenders" to the scientist whose survivability even surpasses the heroine in "Deep Sea". It's a female character who doesn't hold back at all, her acting skills can still be honed, and her appearance is very eye-catching (the movie posters are all out of shape).
If the surface full of monsters is so green and alive, if a piece of wood, a puppy, an old man and a little girl, or even an intelligent robot with a broken leg can survive, is it still the end of the world? It may just be your heart that keeps you trapped in an underground sanctuary.
