A Reaction Paper in the movie THE COUNT OF MONTECRISTO
At first Edmond is not a particularly interesting character. He is
simple but good and brave, really quite dull. The scheming Danglars is far more interesting. The long spell in prison was also not that gripping although you saw how the character of Dants was formed by his association with the old Abb Faria and how his intellect developed.
It reflected the humanity in its way of thinking about putting
justice in its own hands, yet however, overpowered with anger in the course of judgment. In the end of the story, nonetheless, Dantes realized that even his method was limited, as he was just a human himself. He noted that he had also harmed even the innocent.
Finally, he accepted that without God's true power, man cannot
carry out true and rightful justice. From then he believed that the best vengeance should be left in God's hands all in His time and His ways. He ended up forgiving all those who he wronged.
