Movies and computer games containing violence are popular. Some people say they have a negative effect on society and should be censored. Others say they are just harmless relaxation. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion

It has long been a subject of discussion whether entertainment depicting

violence

should be censored or not. In order to see whether the former notion outdoes the latter, we need to look at both sides of the argument and

then

I will give my own opinion that why sensible measured are required for media. On the one

some individuals believe

games

and

movies

are the major factors of enjoyment. They are

also

part of one’s social life. One can easily enjoy and spend some quality time with family and friends.

For example

, after a long day at work or school, young ones watch

movies

and play

games

either with friends or alone.

This

helps them to relax their mind.

Furthermore

, those films contain

violence

, give an insight into the crime and fiction world. People who watch these

movies

not only get to enjoy but

also

educate themselves, by knowing how the criminals work and how to prevent a crime.

Similarly

, children who play violent and military

games

, have described that they have better knowledge, how the police and military work. Notwithstanding the aforementioned rationalisation,

games

and

movies

which contain

violence

are not without concerns. The primary one stems from the fact that people really get manipulated by

movies

. They use their imaginations and try to apply the same scenario in their real life, which led them to do crimes, inspired by

movies

. A recent example of

this

was a Philippine thief who planned a heist just like a Netflix series "Money Heist". He was a big fan of that web series.

Moreover

, just like

movies

,

games

containing

violence

leave a negative impact on adolescents' minds. Since children’s minds are like sponges, it’s easy for them to absorb the information which they see and read, and whenever they come across a similar situation in real life, they behave just like models which they play in

games

. An example of

this

can be seen in America, on different occasions of the school shootings, children used "Call of Duty" game models and styles. In conclusion, even though these

movies

and

games

are sources of entertainment but their role in spreading

violence

in society is greater because people get the motivation for crimes from them.

Therefore

, these

movies

and

games

must be censored to some extent and sensible measures are needed to make them available in public.
