not having fun

This should be a movie about environmental protection. While human beings continue to seek resources from nature, they are also constantly destroying the natural environment. And finally one day, the plants are no longer silent and launched an attack on the human beings.... It is
undeniable that the plot of this film is very attractive, and the beginning of the film is also good, very suspenseful. But the lack of new ideas in the development of the story has become a big escape. The addition of many plots also feels unrelated to the theme, and even the unveiling of the suspense is so bland.
After reading it, the only thing that deeply affected me was the sentence: If bees disappeared from the earth, human beings would only have four years to live.
