How much impact do movies with a "message" have?

Asked by digitalimpression (9920points) November 24th, 2011

I just finished watching The Siege again and it has a lot of blatant political and moral messages thrown into the script. How much do these messages affect society and change minds?
Do you think people just watch movies without taking anything away from them? Are people’s convictions solidified and affirmed by movie messages which become a catalyst for real change in their life? What do you think?
