The apocalypse has arrived! That’s what happened in the movie Love and Monsters . An asteroid about to hit the Earth, humans launched rockets to destroy it, and succeeded. But as if fate had decided, the end of the world did not come one way, it had to come another way. 
“Love and Monsters” is set in a post-apocalyptic world. The chemicals used to build rockets exploded onto the ground like rain and changed the cold-blooded animals. They suddenly become giant and eat humans easily. In the past to kill a cockroach, one only needed a shoe, but now a whole tank might be needed and it might still not work. “Don’t be in peace, even in the end of the world!” Amidst the post-apocalyptic setting, the protagonist Joel Dawson is certainly not the typical hero model. Lovely but inexperienced, he has absolutely no survival skills. The crossbow shooting technique was almost hopeless, the direction was poor, and if there was a serious problem, he froze both his mind and his limbs. 
This is a … crab! Cold-blooded creatures mutated abruptly on the ground, so for safety Joel lived in a cellar with a few other survivors, for seven years. But one Joel-out-is-dead-probably decided to leave that safe place to go find his girlfriend in high school. That hurricane trip forged Joel. Truly things that don’t kill you will make you stronger. In the end, he was a braver, wiser, more capable person who knew when to run away and when to fight. 
Things that don’t kill Joel will make Joel stronger. Man is not born to be lonely Love and Monsters paints a post-apocalyptic world, but it is just too cute. The film has overcome the typical gloom of films in the same setting. Joel brings humor, joy but at the same time brings pain of loss, loneliness in the now lonely world. The disaster caused Joel, like many others, to lose loved ones and friends, to live in underground bunkers for many years. 
Even a robot can make the world less lonely. The old world was gone, part of Joel’s life was gone. Joel now has to live in the cellar, when it is time to go outside, only to stumble, fall again, fall forever. 7 days wandering on the ground dozens of times almost lost their lives. But a fool has the merit of being a fool, Joel receives unexpected help when he needs it most. It was a dog that kept the former owner’s dress. A robot with artificial intelligence. “Survivor” Clyde is brave, seasoned and sharp, 8-year-old Minnow. All of them taught Joel the knowledge of the new world, trained him in his skills, talked to ease his loneliness, and most usefully – gifted a grenade to the toughest beast at a time of danger. . 
Joel was a companion dog. 
And learned in theory and practice by an old person, a child who is a “survival expert”. Love and Monsters stresses the human need to connect, questioning how far one will go to find it, despite the dangers that may exist on the journey. Because we’re not made to be lonely. You always have a talent to surprise the world Joel is always left behind by the siblings living with him when he goes out in search of food, because Joel can not only endanger himself but also his teammates with negative survival skills. Joel’s talent is to draw, he has been drawing for the past seven years. But what effect does drawing have in the post-apocalyptic world? But there is! 
Joel shot the crossbow so badly that the “teacher” almost gave up. Joel painted the monsters he met, the strange plants, added captions such as features, features … In the end, that book became a useful survival guide for everyone. They could know which beasts were dangerous, which monsters could be friends, what edible plants, which poisonous fruits … Maybe Joel didn’t become the usual “hero”, but he became a who inspired everyone to live happier in the midst of the apocalypse. 
But she is the best-seller of the book of apocalyptic survival handbook. Love can change, but it can also return Seven years have passed since the disaster, Joel is 24 years old this year, but he still misses his girlfriend Aimee – who is in another bunker. Joel maintained contact with Aimee over the radio, and then one day decided to go see Aimee even though it was unsafe. If the world is already the end of the world, why should we still live without love? 
Joel fell in love with an Aimee seven years ago. Before starting the trip, Joel should have asked Aimee, “I’m coming to see you, are you as excited as I am?” Because seven years have passed, everyone is different, including Aimee. But it is hard to blame Joel when he is too naive and romantic. When tragedy strikes, Joel is just a teenager and Aimee is Joel’s sweet (and only) first love. Joel’s apocalyptic social relationship was so poor, there was only one cow and one robot that was no longer active, and everyone else had a couple. 
Seven years has forged a very different Aimee, Joel must also grow up. Time was different, the world was different, of course Aimee and her love were also different. After overcoming his initial feeling of disappointment, Joel understood that that was what had to happen, and this desperate journey was still worth it in the end. And when Joel matured, that was the time when love returned.
