Rising crime is one of the most challenging and worrying aspects of society. The role of movies and video games in the rise of it was always debatable but now it has become more and more controversial. The given reflects the two different ideologies as now certain researchers vehemently have started suggesting that a complete restriction should be imposed on criminal acts shown in movies and Xbox
