| | Posted: | | | | Made in the good ol' USA! Probably rubbish but not watched yet. Just thought it interesting that the 'official' rating agency, in the UK, thought that the description warranted a 15 rating. Note that on the disc it states 18 for Ireland (same as R in the US).

The IMDB Parents Guide doesn't sound very spectacular to me to be honest. Maybe those rating details are a tad "alarmist"? And the ratings: USA:R (certificate #45871) / Australia:MA15+ / Portugal:M/16 / UK:15 all are in the same ballpark. cya, Mithi | | | | Mithi's little XSLT tinkering - the power of XML --- DVD-Profiler Mini-Wiki |

| | Posted: | | | | That's the problem with using a specific set of words to describe things. It leaves it to the individual to apply their own view on what they actually mean and that's without any context you get from watching the film.
Just looked through quite a few 15 rated titles in my collection and the qualification seems quite broad from the BBFC ratings info provided, but isn't really that broad at all having watched all of the titles in question. | | | | IVS Registered: January 2, 2002 |
