schools of thought have some merit in them.

This

essay aims to throw some light on the same. Entertainment and art are considered to be an escape from reality. Even if people enjoy an occasional brutal or violent movie,

this

does not mean they are going to mirror these practices in their real lives.

For instance

, Money Heist, a Spanish series on a violent robbery in a central bank, has become extremely popular on Netflix worldwide and its viewers are rational enough to watch

such

shows strictly for entertainment purposes. Having said that, they would not pursue

Consequently

, children might adopt these violent practices they see on television and perceive them to be normal. To conclude, it definitely depends on an adult person to interpret movies in a rational way but it is
