Film Ratings

It's difficult to talk about the film ratings as each country will have its own rating system as shown below between the UK and the USA rating system.

Below is the UK rating system done by the BBFC.


Below is the USA rating system done by the MPAA.


Both are very similar apart from the 12A and PG-13 which differ by a year.

This chart (Link) shows how many movies are categorised in each section and each section's total gross and average gross. The PG-13 rating in the US is the third most popular rating, however has 45.08% of the total revenue market share with the average of $42 million per film. This shows how films are made to be in this category to get both the kids and parents to come to the cinema thus increasing the total revenue.
