More effects and less storyline seem to be the common denominator now-a-days.
Every now and then theres an Inceptionout there to save the sanity ofmoviegoers, but you have to shift through the rest of the movies with mindlessviolence to find them.
Special effects are not to blame for this shift in movie stories, but they are apossible factor.
There is an over-reliance on special and visual effects as a substitute for goodstorytelling.
The birth of these effects captivated people in their day and have sinceenhanced the industry of movie-making in some ways and hindered it inothers.Many movies now lack substantial plot and character development.
Some stunts may influence immature brains of society & may put anyone to
prevail in dream world which in turn reduce creativity & realistic thought.
