Bees are really disappearing

In recent years, it seems that doomsday-style films have become popular, and I remember that I saw no less than three trailers with doomsday plots this year. Now that the world economy is in such a slump, and there are so many natural and man-made disasters, it feels a bit like the end of the world.
Doomsday movies are basically related to weapons of mass destruction. Of course, if you write about war directly, it will become a war movie, so you can only use human ignorance to nature to invent a new type of virus. Such films are either personal heroes saving the world, such as "Resident Evil", "I am a legend", or they criticize the stupidity of human beings and the coldness of human nature, such as "28 Days Later", "Son of Humanity". Unfortunately, this film has nothing to do with the above two points, so I can't see where the characteristics of the film are. A group of people just ran around in panic, and the male protagonist tried to find out the truth, but several speculations failed, and no answer was given until the end of the film. Is it to echo the Q&A in science class? To demonstrate the mysterious power of nature? Anyway, I was looking confused.
What interests me is Einstein's quote: "If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left". As a rigorous scientist, he boldly made such a prediction. What is even more terrifying is that the phenomenon of the disappearance of bees described in the film is happening quietly on our planet.

    From five stars to three stars, there is only half a step between classic and mediocre.
