MPAA Ratings
G—General Audiences. A G-rated motion picture contains nothing in theme, language,
nudity, sex, violence or other matters that, in the view of the Rating Board, would offend
parents whose younger children view the motion picture. The G rating is not a "certificate
of approval," nor does it signify a "children's" motion picture. Some snippets of language
may go beyond polite conversation but they are common everyday expressions. No
stronger words are present in G-rated motion pictures. Depictions of violence are minimal.
No nudity, sex scenes, or drug use are present in the motion picture.
