baby gone

In the movie gone baby gone the main characters bring out the question what morally correct or not the philosophy of all them is divide it in two consequentialism and ethical absolutism . patrick the protogonigst belive in following the ethical morality is the best way to aways go regarless of what the action and the long term consequence may be. his belive are form beacuse of his childhood as in the begigng of the movie he mentions what a priest told him to always do what right even if it doesnt seem . trou out the movie he is involve in senario that question his belive on example when he shoots the child molester in the herad althought for many of others that was correct for him seem to be wrong he says killing is a sin wether or not . althought it lead him to find the girl Amanda his again place in this senario when he decide to ruturn the child to her mother although she was in beetter envierment than been with her mother who is an alcholic drug addict .

however the other charecter Angie, police captain, lionel , renny their action lead them to believe in consequentialism to do the right decision doesn t mean to do what moraly correct . In their intention to look for what was best for Amanda they believe it was ok to cover taht fact her kidnap was a fraoud . and live away from her mother . Angie an the police captain are left in dispointment when she is brought to her mother . one examle is when angie confront patric and tell him she is better of lving with the captain becaue she would have birthday parties slepover like normal girl this point is brought with the irony tht the police captain was supoosetly the one in charge of the case

in my opinion i disagree with the endng i would have left the child with the new place and have shown the mother were she was insted of caling the cops nd brought her back to the envierment she was in the beginging . althought it was the morally correct it was not the best decsion . at the end helen the mother is living the child an attendent to go out with somebody .
