Video games ‘more violent than my films’

LOS ANGELES: Hollywood actor Arnold Schwarzenegger has defended “brutal violence” in movies ahead of his new film “Sabotage”.
Schwarzenegger, the former governor of California, said: “It’s a bit of an homage to the films that I grew up on, and directors like Brian De Palma, and Walter Hill and Sam Peckinpah who made very brutal kind of masculine movies. I think violence is political now: Maybe if there is no violence in movies, there will be no violence in the world. I don’t believe that. The video games our children play are much, much more violent than anything in this movie.”
