#47--This Film is Not Yet Rated--Day 121

This documentary focuses on the inconsistencies in the MPAA rating system. It was really interesting the ways in which many of the movies I have seen have been altered in an effort to comply with the ratings. Most of the time the ratings have little to do with the amount of killing or language, but more with sex. If a film is to get an NC-17 rating, it is impossible for films to get any funding. Often times films that show women getting intense sexual pleasure and/or gay sex are immediately slapped with an NC-17 label because it is too "risque" aka straight up bullshit. This was a pretty interesting documentary. There was a lot of facts that I found really interesting throughout the documentary. It wasn't amazing, but decent.

3 out of 5.
