What The Ordinary Movie Ratings Mean
Movies have long had a rating system that is used as a guide to let parents and individuals know if a specific motion picture is proper for particular viewers. It is often to shelter children and let parents know if a movie comprises violent or sexual scenes, however it may be rated for something as simple as smoking or swearing. Many people differ with many ratings for many movies and there have even been copyright cases where a company deliberately deleted scenes that they deemed inappropriate though the film may have been rated a PG or PG-13.
Movies are very different from each other and it is very tough to maintain a set standard that is reliable for every movie. One person may be offended by a semi-nude scene that suggests sexuality while another one watching the identical movie may find that the suicide by gun scene is more offensive, diverse people have different reactions and beliefs about what is or is not inappropriate.
The rating system for movies though is based upon theme and content. Parents and individuals need to take accountability themselves and just use the rating system as a guide as one should never rely on the rating system totally.
A G rating means that the movie has been deemed suitable for general audiences. It may or may not be a children's film but it will not have sexual scenes, swearing, drug or alcohol use, cigarette smoking or violence.
PG recommends parental guidance. There may be brief moments of the abovementioned scenes but none are disproportionate. Parents are just cautioned that the scenes may exist. PG-13 is a stronger parental guidance caution. This is typically a movie that is not enough to demand an R rating but proper for a PG-13 either. These movies are meant for children over the age of 13 with parental direction. There is perhaps nudity or implied sexuality and/or violence.
No one under the age of 17 will be allowed into an R rated movie unless they are accompanied by an adult guardian or parent. There is likely sexual scenes, drug abuse or violence. Parents are encouraged to watch these movies first before deciding to permit a child or young person to watch it.
The newest rating is an NC-17. No one under the age of 17 is admitted into the theater to see these movies. These movies are infrequently pornographic but they do have adult content, either sexual or even violence beyond what is suitable for anyone under the age of 17.
As with most things a parent needs to make a mindful choice on what is or is not apt for their offspring. The ratings system is just a broad guide. - 18424
