In 2007, the film "I Am Legend" starring Will Smith should be one of the best science fiction movies after 2000. Before writing this movie review, I specially watched the movie three times, and then I will talk about this classic old film 11 years ago. The end of the world is like a coin, one side is chaos, the other side is peace. Most zombie sci-fi films use eye-catching zombies and various bloody scenes to capture eyeballs to achieve an exciting effect. It is an operation to create the end of the world. And "I am Legend" is the opposite, with the empty Manhattan of New York, the Fifth Avenue full of grass and cars, and the empty Washington Square Park, creating another look of the coin.

At the same time, using high-altitude overhead and aerial shots to show the city's big and small characters, this contrast is more confined to the last half of the film. There is only one person, one dog and one city. This dead feeling is more fearful than the impact of the visual. It also evoked a question in the audience's mind, "What happened to this city?" This kind of operation can be said to be an alternative to movies of the same kind. The recurring elements in the film must have their deep meaning. Some of the most common butterflies in the film have been said to have appeared twice. In fact, if you look closely, there are a total of five occurrences.

After Robert drove through the street, the butterfly element first appeared on the broken poster on the right side of the lens. The shape of the poster's broken shape is exactly what the butterfly looks like, and the poster's text "God still loves us" seems to imply. The second appearance of the butterfly was the butterfly gesture made by his daughter Mary Lily. The butterfly appeared for the third time after checking its neck. The night demon slammed into Robert's small building, and in the basement, he painted an abstract butterfly on the glass door, which is the fourth appearance of the butterfly. Seeing the abstract painting of the night magic boss, Robert suddenly realized that he was once again looking at the neck of the female night demon. At this time, it was the fifth appearance of the butterfly. In the repeated appearance of these five butterflies, the first four butterflies are obscured, and only the last pattern is the clearest. In fact, this is also a step-by-step expression of the meaning of the butterfly in the film. So what exactly does the butterfly mean? Combined with the first appearance of the butterfly, it can be known that the butterfly in the film is related to the Christianity of God. In Christianity, the butterfly is a symbol of rebirth. In the film, it refers to the rebirth of the night demon, and also refers to the rebirth of Robert.

The film's expression of race includes three aspects: human and animal, human and human, and human and new species. The deer that Robert chased was captured by a female lion, and at this time a lion entered the picture with a small lion, and Robert was on the side of the gun but did not intend to retrieve the prey. I guess what is expressed here is that although human beings possess wisdom and possess weapons at the top of the food chain, they should not deprive animals of their right to survive. Robert recommended the CD of "The Best Album of the History" to the new companion Anne. The album is Bob Marley's "Legend", which was released in the third year after Bob's death (1984). By Robert's evaluation of Bob Marley "He has a viral idea, injecting music and love into people's lives, he can heal racial discrimination and hatred." Expressing the film's racial discrimination and hatred between people the opinion of. I think that I have to be responsible for this. I insist on doing research vaccine to turn the night magic back to humans. After seeing the love of the night magic boss and the female night demon, he finally realized that even if they lost many of the characteristics of the human, the night magic also has thoughts, love and hate, they are just new species after the mutation.
