PG-13 rated films that should been rated R
Violence
Intense Violence (e.g., realistic violence with high carnage impact or realistic suffering) and first-person or detailed gore is only allowed in R and NC-17 rated movies.
Sex
R rated movies can contain strong sexual activity, but if the movie's primary purpose is sex or it contains very strong, detailed sexual images, it could get an NC-17 rating.
Nudity
The MPA, similar to the ESRB, is very strict with nudity. Nudity is allowed in R rated movies and above. Too much emphasis on strong details (e.g., anus, erections) and exploitative nudity are likely to be rated NC-17.
Offensive language
The MPA allows religious language for strong language at the R rated movies ("f**k", "motherf**ker", "c**t", "c**ksucker", "f****t") with only a few notable exceptions.
