MPAA film Motion N/A N/A Web page detailing the different age http://www.mpaa.org/ratin
age Picture ratings / film certificates and what features gs/what-each-rating-means
certificates Association of films are considered too “mature” for a
of America specific age range. This website details in
American age ratings, such as G, PG, PG-13,
R and NC-17, G being the lowest age and
least restricted and NC-17 the highest. G is
for “general audiences – all ages
permitted”, PG is “Parental Guidance
suggested. Some material may not be
suitable for children”, PG-13 is “Parents
strongly cautioned. Some material may be
inappropriate for children under 13”, and is
the first rating to specify a particular age
restriction. However, children younger
than 13 are permitted into the screening if
with a parent. R is “Restricted. Children
under 17 require accompanying parent or
guardian” and is the first rating to require
such. The last rating, NC-17, is “no one
under 17 permitted”, and is the only rating
that cannot be waivered by an
accompanying adult.

2. BBFC film British N/A N/A Similar website to the one above, details in http://www.bbfc.co.uk/clas
age Board of British film ratings, which are U, PG, 12, sification/guidelines/the-
certificates Film 12A, 15, 18 and R18. Unlike in America, categories/
Classificatio ratings with a specific age in mind (12, 15,
n 18, etc) cannot be waivered by
accompanying adults. The only exception
to this is the 12A rating. In all other regards
they function the same, however the rules
regarding who can be permitted are less
vague. The last rating, R18, is specifically
for films that can only be shown in special
licensed cinemas and are otherwise sold in
licensed sex shops.
