Reasons and Content Descriptors
Explanation
The PG13 rating helps to indicate to parents that the content in the film is more
suitable for an older teenage audience. This allows for informed choice. It also helps
parents in supervising their young children in the selection of films. PG13 is an
advisory rating. Parents exercise their discretion as to whether they would want their
younger children to watch a PG13 film
