MPAA Ratings
G—General Audiences . A G-rated motion picture contains nothing in theme, language,
nudity, sex, violence or other matters that, in the view of the Rating Board, would offend
parents whose younger children view the motion picture. The G rating is not a “certificate
of approval,” nor does it signify a “children’s” motion picture. Some snippets of language
may go beyond polite conversation but they are common everyday expressions. No
stronger words are present in G-rated motion pictures. Depictions of violence are minimal.
No nudity, sex scenes, or drug use are present in the motion picture.
PG—Parental Guidance Suggested . Some Material May Not Be Suitable For
Children . A PG-rated motion picture should be investigated by parents before they let
their younger children attend. The PG rating indicates, in the view of the Rating Board,
that parents may consider some material unsuitable for their children, and parents should
make that decision. The more mature themes in some PG-rated motion pictures may call
for parental guidance. There may be some profanity and some depictions of violence or
brief nudity. But these elements are not deemed so intense as to require that parents be
strongly cautioned beyond the suggestion of parental guidance. There is no drug use
content in a PG-rated motion picture.
