Quizzy: UK kids are going to be reading me younger than US kids.

My life has been rated:
Suitable for 15 years or older. Films in this category can be about anything, say 'fuck' a lot, probably get to see all sorts of guns and shooting, but no open heart surgery with a knife. Most 'R' rated films in America fit into this category.
See what your rating is!

I got a 12a (children under 18 needs an adult companion).

I wonder how a Swedish test would do. We've got three ratings above "suitable for children," namely 7, 11 and 15. (The two younger ones gets turned down a notch in the company of an adult, so a seven year old can see a movie rated 11 with an adult.)

It's almost exclusively based on violence. The soft porn The Lustful Vicar is rated suitable for children. (Very soft porn, though; tits and ass shown some, sex going on, but no genitalia in sight.)

Children under 12, you mean. :o)

I hate the new 12a rating. Before that it was just '12', and no under-12s were allowed, full-stop. But now primary school brats can go to films like the Lord Of The Rings movies. When we went to see The Two Towers there was a /school class/ in to watch it. Gah!

The rating is still '12' for non-theatrical stuff, like DVDs and videos.

You should write one up!
