Why Matilda From Awake Looks So Familiar

Another great showcase for Greenblatt's talent is "Love and Monsters," which made its international debut on Netflix in April. As in "Awake," Greenblatt plays a shrewd survivor of an apocalyptic event in the movie, although this crisis is a little different: in "Love and Monsters," radioactive fallout turns all of the world's cold-blooded creatures into giant monsters. Yikes.
Greenblatt's Minnow is the companion to Michael Rooker's Clyde, and is accompanying him on a mission to find a new safe haven when they cross paths with Dylan O'Brien's Joel. While Clyde and Minnow have both endured terrible tragedies, they refuse to give into defeat. Instead, they become experts on all of the creepy-crawlies wandering the world, and know exactly how to hack it in the newly wild outdoors. As always, Greenblatt has screen presence to spare, and she is completely convincing as a young woman who is as tough and tenacious as her older sidekicks.
