So the main character is someone named Simon?

Neville. His name is Neville.

I just find some things very unrealistic:

- Monsters are walking under the ocean! Do you know how difficult it is to walk under water? It's almost impossible!

That's like saying it's almost impossible to swim under water. It isn't.

- Too many objects are floating in the water. I would like it to see a hand full floating objects, but normally things either were swimming on the plane or sinking to the ground.

I didn't see this.

- Underwater computers and radio messages?

If you look at the video you will see clearly that parts of the undersea station are still intact and do not contain water. That's where there are still intact computers, and where voice messages can be heard. Radio messages under water are of course not a problem at all, within short ranges.

Also:

- How can he talk underwater?
- How can he walk uderwater or pick up things and throw them? Do you know how much strength this requires?

As I pointed out previously, on those occasions he's in areas of the building which aren't filled with water.

- How can he survive the strong pressure underwater?

Using a diving suit.
