Movie Ratings Information

Film ratings are determined by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA).

G

The motion picture contains nothing that would offend parents for viewing by their children.

PG

Parents are urged to use "parental guidance," as the motion picture may contain some material parents might not like for their younger children to view.

PG-13

Parents are urged to be cautious. Some material may be inappropriate for pre-teenagers.

R

Contains some adult material. Parents are urged to learn more about the motion picture before taking their younger children with them. Generally, it is not appropriate for parents to bring their young children with them to R-rated motion pictures.

NC-17

Patently adult. Children are not admitted

NR

The motion picture has not been reviewed by the MPAA. You're on your own, Mom and Dad.

Ratings are assigned by an independent board of parents with no past affiliation to the movie business. Their objective is to provide other parents with advance information about the content of films so that they can make an informed decision about which movies are appropriate for their young children to see. A film's rating is not intended to be a reflection of its quality.
