R - Restricted under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian
An R-rated motion picture, in the view of the Rating Board, contains some adult material. An R-rated motion picture
may include adult themes, adult activity,
hard language, intense or persistent violence, sexually-oriented nudity, drug abuse or other elements, so that
parents are counseled to take this rating very seriously. Children under 17 are not allowed to attend R-rated motion pictures unaccompanied by a parent or adult guardian.
Parents are strongly urged to find out more about R-rated motion pictures in determining their suitability for their children. Generally, it is not appropriate for
parents to bring their young children with them to R-rated motion pictures.
