| - | '''R''' - Restricted - Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult 17 or older with photo ID. These films may contain strong [[profanity]], [[graphic sex]]uality or [[nudity]], strong [[violence]], and/or [[gore]], and [[drug use]]. A movie rated R for profanity often has more severe or frequent language than the [[PG-13]] rating would permit. Rarely an R-rated movie can be similar to that of a PG-13. ''[[Appleseed]]'' was rated R for "some violence" and was just as violent as a PG-13. It was rated R was because of one instance of a head [[crushing]]. That doesn't mean that it is full of profanity. [[Georgia Rule]] for example was rated R for "sexual content and some language", and had the frequency of profanity as an average PG-13 rated movie. The reason why it was rated R in part for "some language" was because one of the 2 uses of fuck was used sexually. Some of the other words were also used in a harsher context than a PG-13 would permit. An R-rated movie may have more blood, gore, drug use, nudity, or graphic sexuality than a PG-13 movie would admit. The word "[[motherfucker]]" would be an example for language. | + | * [[R18 certificate]], a rating by the British Board of Film Classification usually signifying hardcore pornography |
