About Guess the Rating
Guess the Rating tests a unique kind of movie knowledge: censorship and demographics. Do
you
recall if The Dark Knight was PG-13 or R? Was Frozen G or PG? It sounds simple, but
the
lines are often blurrier than you think.
Understanding Ratings
The game focuses on the standard MPA (Motion Picture Association) ratings:
- G / PG: General audiences. Usually family films.
- PG-13: The blockbuster standard. Intense action but limited violence/language.
- R: Restricted. Adult themes, gore, or language.
Why It's Challenging
Movies have changed over decades. An 'R' rated film from the 80s might feel like a 'PG-13' today, or vice
versa. This game challenges you to contextualize the film's content and its intended audience. It's a
fun
way to learn about film history and censorship standards.
