Movie Ratings
I believe that movie ratings can be decently judged in some cases, but some are really out of control. Movies such as Paramount Picture’s A Night At The Roxbury, has had some controversy in it’s rating. The movie consists of sex related humor, foul language, and drug content, yet the movie is rated PG-13. Personally, I wouldn’t want my kids that are thirteen and younger to be watching a movie with sex related humor and especially drug content. Drugs and sex are hurting people’s lives and shouldn’t be displayed to children thirteen years old.
1998 Oscar winner, Beetle juice, displayed headless corpses, and also using foul language as the “F-bomb,” while grabbing himself in the crotch. The MPAA rated the movie as PG, which means for parents to urge to give “parental guidance” as it may contain some material not suitable for young children. Words that profane and actions they use in the video should definitely use parental guidance.
In conclusion, the MPAA have been rating movies that should be carefully looked at. Most of the movies are old ones, where the new movies are being carefully checked to make sure nobody complains about their kids watching something unsuitable.
