Film Rating U to 18

- U (Universal) is for any age group to view as all content is safe to watch. An example of a U rated film is SnowWhite.

- PG (Parental Guidance) allow any age, unless they are under the age of 8, they are required to be accompanied by an adult as the content may contain mild language and sex/drugs references and moderate violence. An example of this rating is Toy Story.

- 12A means a child under 12 can only see the film if they are accompanied by an adult 18 or over. 12A rated films may contain  mature themes, discrimination, soft drugs, infrequent strong language and moderate violence, sex references and nudity. An example of a 12A film is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

 -12 allows only those above the age of 12 into the cinema. The guidelines are the same as 12A, in fact once some 12A's are released there then become a certified 12. Examples of a 12 rate film is The Perks of being a Wall Flower.

  - 15 rated films lets those aged 15 and over view the film. The contents of a 15 rate movie are, contain adult themes, hard drugs, regular use of foul language and limited use of very strong language, strong violence and strong sex references, and nudity without graphic detail. Sexual activity may be shown but not in any strong detail. Sexual violence may be shown if discreet and justified by context. An example of a 15 is the Hangover.

-18 is for adults only. 18's content includes hard drugs, sexual activity, swearing and sex references There are no limits with 18 rated films it can be as disturbing as possible. Strong sexual violence is permitted unless it is explicitly shown or graphic. An example of an 18 is the Wolf of WallStreet.

 Our opening sequence to our film will most likely be rated 12A, as some scenes are intense for viewing and may be considered uncomfortable to watch. However  there is nothing to heavy but enough to keep  anyone on the edge of their seat so by it being as low as a 12A will allow ourselves to have an expanded audience.
