When we look at movie reviews, we often see clouds like "R-rated movies", so let's open one todayPopular science postsExplain the film classification system in the United States, and what scale each level is and what masterpieces they have.

First of all, let's talk about the American film classification system commonly used in Europe and the United States (after all, Hollywood's influence is still amazing), this is oneNon-mandatory grading systemIn other words, the producer of the film can choose whether or not to submit it for grading, but basically all (European and American) filmmakers will choose to accept the rating.

The American film classification system is governed by the Motion Picture Association of America ("MPAA"), which was founded in 1922 as a trading organization for the film industry, and this organization is composed of the presidents of seven largest and top film and television media companies in the United States, namely: Disney, Sony Audiovisual, MGM Movie Studios, Paramount. Twentieth Century Fox, Universal Imaging, Warner Bros.

The Classification and Rating Administration (CARA) under the MPAA is made up of parents of children who are not previously in an industry related to the film and television industry.

The scale of film classification is based on the basic theme of the movie, language, degree of violence, degree of nudity, xing love scenes and du product use scenes, etc., even if it is a movie poster, the trailer must be reviewed by "cara".

The real implementation of the classification system for American films began on November 1, 1968, when the classification was like thisG (Normal), M (Protection), R (Restricted), X (Restricted). That's what we often say"R-rated movies" is actually the origin of "restricted movies".

On September 26, 1990, the Motion Picture Association of America announced a new film classification system, and today I will explain it one by one according to the current system.

G (General Audiences All Ages Admitted).

Mass-of-the-roadIn other words, the content of the movie can be accepted by the child's parents, the film has no luo body, xing love pictures, and there are very few or no scenes of sucking du and violence. So this kind of movie is basically pure and exists like a little white flower, such as "Finding Nemo", "Ice Age", "The Lion King", "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog", and most of the Disney animations are in this list.

PG (Parental Guidance suggested some material may not be suitable for children).

Tutoring level, some of the content in the movie may not be suitable for children**, it is recommended to be accompanied by parents**, some scenes may have a bad effect on children. There is almost no luo dew in the film, xing love and violence, du products, even if there is, it is a flash, and the elements of violence and horror can only stop at the point, even if there is a scene of a small couple "applauding for love", it is basically an ambiguous look and then it is converted to the next morning, the two of them wear neat home clothes together for breakfast, children may also be surprised by the speed of the plot, and adults may have begun to make up for it. The fight scene is also basically a cute fist flying over, and there will be no bloody scenes.

For example, "Life of Pi" directed by Ang Lee (what should I do if I fight a tiger and scare children?) ), "Mr. Bean" starring Rowan Atkinson (some funny behaviors and actions can be dangerous for children to imitate), "Edward Scissorhands" (if a child learns with scissors, it will be a big deal).

PG-13 (parents strongly cautioned some material may be inappropriate for children under 13).

Special Tutoring Grade, recommended for children over 13 years old**. The film generally does not have excessively sustained violence and horror scenes (within certain limits), generally does not have luo revealing scenes, and occasionally there are scenes of sucking and foul language in clips.

For example, "Titanic", "Harry Potter" series, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", "007" series, "Avatar", "Fast and Furious".

Grade R (restricted under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian).

Knock on the blackboard, here's what you want to know).Restricted level, It is recommended that people over 17 years old** (or under 17 years old must be accompanied by their parents**) Films at this level contain **content, which contains more luo dew, xing love, sucking, violence, and foul language scenes.

For example, "Joker", "Tales of the Night", "Resident Evil" series (I guess the large number of zombies is terrible), "Saw Horror" series (this one doesn't need to be explained, it's too bloody), "Spartan 300 Warriors" (well, too violent), "Kill Bill" (bloody + violent), "Deadpool" (this ......).Let's not talk about the scene, just those gushing foul words have to be judged to the R level).

There are also some that we are more familiar with in the United States that have also been sentenced to R ratings, and some may not be quite understandable, such as Bruce Lee's "Raptors Across the River", "Jingwumen", domestic "Nanjing Nanjing", Jet Li's "Fang Shiyu" series, "Wong Fei Hung" series, Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu" (is it the palm that fell from the sky?) ), Mermaids.

NC-17 (no one 17 and under admitted).

High energy! High energy! Under 17 years of age (inclusive) is not prohibited**. This is not allowed to be seen under the age of 18 with or without a parent. Because this level is defined as a film that adults watch. There may be relatively clear scenes of xing love in the film, a lot of sucking or violent scenes, and countless swear words. That is, the old version of the "X-level", this "X" is a very clear big fork.

For example, the classic Tony Leung and Tang Wei's "Lust and Caution", the well-known world-class banned film "120 Days of Sodom", Alexandra Daddario starred in "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D" and so on, you can basically understand why it is NC-17 after watching it.

And then there's a fewSpecial Grading, which is relatively niche, such as nr or, m x p, the former is an unrated movie, some are too early, and they have not participated in the rating at that time, and some are not rated for some special reasons; The latter are films that are not allowed to be released in theaters, such as "Total Recall 90 Edition" (Schwarzenegger).

In fact, this popular science post is more about hoping that everyone can have a clearer understanding of the American film classification method, the so-called "R grade" is just a limit for age, as an adult with normal mental health and physical health, being able to watch movies correctly and relax moderately is the king.

As a small teaser, the next issue plans to introduce Japan's film rating system, what the hell is going on with the so-called "****?" If you like it, follow it!
