Improved Introduction

"Violence is one of the greatest things you can do in cinema; Edison invented the camera to do violence, all right?” in which Quentin Tarantino has mocked violence in the film industry. This accentuates how producers are limiting their ideas to violence. Although 2012’s great blockbuster film The Dark Knight Rises has increased its revenue dramatically it also undoubtedly has been criticised for glamourises violence, within our society.  Despite having massive Hollywood movies such as The Dark Knight Rises becoming profitable, people are supposedly criticising movies for making people being desensitized with violence? To justify this critical investigation on how violence is represented in movies is that there have been many cases in the recent years that signified the influence of violence from movies. In contrast there are findings that suggest violence does not increase the number of violent cases. We can also witness the use of violence in historical films such as Natural Born Killers to have supposedly influenced violent cases amongst society. Even though there are many factors that contribute to violent cases. Also violent cases have occurred from the influence of other platforms such as video games in which I looked at GTA Vice City as part of my further research. I found that during the course of my research, killers have been represented as media celebrities in the news which could be a reason as to why many people commit these crimes. However this cannot be the sole reason as to why people commit violent crimes, it could be certain aspects within movies. This is why I have decided to carry out a critical investigation on my primary and secondary texts.
