MCT:May 14, 2008it's not as eye-opening or informative as it thinks it is. the private investigation stuff seemed like filler. no mention of sweetback?? the filmmaker could have done a bit more research. also, who edited this film? some kid from mctc??

MCT:April 9, 2008Very well-done documentary. My only complaint is that the filmmaker approaches the MPAA organization as if it were a government institution, rather than the free-market enterprise that it is.

MCT:April 5, 2008Definitely a good and interesting documentary on the MPAA and its hypocrisy. There were some good interviews with some of the most risque directors like John Waters and Matt Stone. It was great to see the differences between how sex scenes between heterosexual partners are treated as opposed to homosexual sex scenes. It is even more hilarious to know that this documentary got an NC-17 rating. Someone needs to keep investigating this MPAA and kick them out of our TVs.

Fantastic documentary on the MPAA rating system. Very interesting and shocking to learn what these people are really up to. I recommend anyone interested in the film industry watch this movie!

Although some of the film's key points are not pushed as hard as they could have been (for instance, the different approach to straight and gay sex scenes) this is nevertheless an interesting look at the role and impact of the MPAA. It is also an interesting commentary on popular attitudes towards sex and violence in modern movies. If you are interested in film, this is well worth watching.

The ratings system IS pretty much a joke. There so many bad movies rated PG that should be PG-13! And I've seen some R rated movies had had less unacceptable content then most PG-13 ones!
