There are some lessons to learn from this movie, but there is one main lesson that people would notice immediately. The main lesson is to be careful for what you do, even by doing something great or something that you accomplished can even throw consequences and negative effects at you.

This provides maybe even a message to people of to be aware for what they do and to know the consequences of their actions. Others learning from this movie will probably make sure what will come as a result for any type of action they will do and won’t abandoned it, just like

    The need for control is a struggle for authority and power over others. In Chaim Potok’s, The Chosen, Reb Saunders controls his son in every aspect of his life by the way he raised him to his day to day interactions. Throughout Mary Shelly’s, Frankenstein, Victor controls his creation by condemning the monster’s actions or thoughts that aren’t approved or conceived by Victor, dictating the monster should live his way or not at all. Reb and Victor, two main creators, demonstrate how futile the meaningless pursuit of control is through experiences and differences in the relationships with their offspring. Reb Saunders is a Rabbi considered by his followers not only a holy man but a medium between God and their congregation.…

    Victor’s actions and reasons have been widely discussed from an ethical and unethical point of view ever since this book was published. Some would say that Victor did this out of discovery, like we have done with plenty of influential studies in our society. Others would only see the consequences for his actions or how he got to this point and think they were unethical for human society. In my opinion I believe Victor’s actions were completely without a doubt unethical. The desecration of human graves in order to build his monster, the abandoned his creation from the first moment he gave it life, and lastly taking no responsibility for his creation, killing countless innocent people does not seem like an ethical man.…
