While I can certainly comprehend if you are convinced that the films had perpetrated a grievous error by depicting Aro as if he was a malevolent tyrant, the primary factor that perhaps may benefit you in attempting to recall precisely to some extent, is that Aro is, in actuality, depraved. But Aro, as I am certain that you can glean from witnessing the novels, was attempting to utilize conniving methods that would not only prevent his spectators from ascertaining fact that not only were the Volturi precisely depraved, callous, and egotistical tyrants which completely contradicted the raltruisticenown and prestige that they possessed that depicted them as benevolent and altruistic "messiahs," but would enable him, as well, to instigate conflict with the Cullens and attempt to capture those individuals whose talents could benefit him within his attempts to accomplish his tyrannical ambitions. Not that  Caius lacks depravity as well, but whereas Caius prefers to unleash his malevolence conspicuously, Aro utilizes subtle tactics that convince individuals who lack either the insight or the will to delve underneath the surface and extrapolate precisely what his actual intentions are that the ploy that they witness corresponds with what is occurring in actuality.
