If you can get past the directorial unevenness and generic comical style at the beginning, Love and Monsters gives you your moneys worth with its excellent set piece monster effects, in my opinion these Monsters are the real stars of this movie as trying to make sense out the rest of the screenplay and acting is a waste of viewing time, forget about that and just go with the monster flow.
Numerous movies may come to mind watching this film, such as : Jumani, Journey To The Centre Of The Earth, Jurassic Park, or even The Mist. Those who are fans of Stranger Things will like the Dystopian aftermath created for this film, when mutant monsters rule the Earth.
There are far too many questions that challenge scientific logic in Love and Monsters so those who struggle with fantasy fictional tales will not want to watch this film anyway.
In some ways I felt more sorry for the Monsters than I did for the actors, I feel sure these Monsters will make a better job of preserving this planet environmentally than the human race did, perhaps subconsciously that is what the writers intended.
Interesting that an Australian CGI company had developed most of the effects, there are so many technically excellent SFX companies nowadays, sci-fi fans are being spoilt.
Also interesting to see that it had a budget of $30 million, I would say it would have cost $80 million in America.
My rating is: 7 out of 10 for the acting of the Monsters.
