Many people believe that the high levels of violence in films today are causing serious social problems. What are these problems? How could they be reduced?
It is obvious that action is one of the genres which are beloved by humans today. However, there has been the increasing level of violence in this kind of movies which are the cause of people’s troubles in societies. Therefore, some steps should be taken to decrease those.
One noticeable point about violence in movies is that people, especially children, are easily badly influence from this. Should they watch many heavily violent scenes, they will possibly consider violence attractive and worthwhile to try. Accordingly, they may be willing to punch or beat their friends and siblings strongly without hesitating when they do not approve of others’ opinions. As a result, they will gradually be vicious to everyone and no one will dare to make friends with them which lead to their friendlessness.
In contrast, however serious these problems are, we are still able to resolve them. The most effective solution is to encourage film directors to decrease the level of violence, especially in children’s movies. For example, they can add in a film only one scene in which the characters slightly beat each other which lasts for a short time. Second, adults, particularly parents and teachers, need to educate youngsters carefully about the negative effects of action-packed films and help them to choose the ones which contain a low level of violence. Finally, individuals also should be persuaded into watching other wholesome genres such as romantic, biography and documentary.
In short, children’s brutality will rise if they are too into violent movies. Nevertheless, people can tackle this by applying those steps mentioned above.
