Movies Ruined By Their Ratings

Ever saw a movie that you hoped would be at a certain rating like 15 or 18 only to be disappointed that it is a 12A?

The movie The Meg looked like it was gonna be at least a 15 but when I found that it was a 12A, I was disappointed. When you think of a killer shark movie, you think of a shark eating people in gruesome ways. Apparently, gorier death scenes were filmed but the studios wanted it to be PG-13/12A so the scenes were cut.

Removing much of the movie's content (language, sex, violence) just to get a lower rating and sell more tickets ruins the movie's potential to be a really good movie.

Not many films are rated higher than a 12 A nowadays. Which does spoil the good horror movies

Indeed. What was a mistake was rating Woman in Black 12A and I don't think anything was edited out. I think it was rated 12A just because Daniel Radcliffe was in it and kids love seeing Harry Potter.

I personally love horror movies but the majority of them are 15s now and not scary. Add to that a cinema full of prepubescents all snogging it doesn’t make for a good night lol

Terminator 3 was a perfect example of this. The first one was an 18, the second was a 15 then number 3 was just a 12!

Plus those 15 rated horror movies are mostly filled with cheap jumpscares and have the same boring plots.

When were blockbuster movies ever about the art instead of the money?

It’s called the movie BUSINESS for a reason
