    I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone raise hell over the PG-13 rating in America.

    I don't usually care about these sort of things, but if we're going by history, this film shouldn't be PG-13.

      It has a PG rating here.


      Back in 1984 they had just introduced the PG-13. Not even sure if it was in place by the time KK 1 came out.

      The kiss was edited out of the movie's release in China.

        Ah, ok so it should be PG-13 and not PG. I still think this film could be somewhere between PG-13 and R.

          Considering there is no middle ground PG-13 is what it should have had. No way that is PG violence even if no blood was shown.

            So your censorship goes from pg-13 straight to R-18+? Not much middle ground there is there.

            We have PG-13, M15 (recommended for 15 plus but not restricted) MA15+ (restricted to 15+ only) and R-18 (restricted to 18+ only).

              In the US: G --> PG --> PG-13 --> R --> NC-17

                Definently agree with this.

                Also I forgot to mention, kid with the mohawk is hilarous.
