Last month, the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) issued a PG rating to a film that deals with issues of God and faith. Why? Well, according to some associated with the movie, because it dealt with issues of God and faith.
And now some in D.C. are upset and want an “explanation” from the MPAA. The ratings board has none, except to say that a “miscommunication” resulted in the impression that religious content upped the movie’s rating.
The MPAA has for long been a failing system of generalizations, labels, and often downright incorrect ratings. Look for my upcoming documentation of some of the MPAA’s blunders in a Editorial soon.
