What does m stand for in the movie rating?

Answer 1

That would depend on the country in which you saw the rating, since each country has its own system for film classification. Canada used to have a rating called 'Mature' which was equivalent to the USA's PG, suggesting that Parental Guidance is recommended but would not prohibit a child from seeing the movie unattended. (Most Canadian provinces have become more streamlined with the Motion Picture Association of America's (MPAA) rating system, but differences still exist.)

Answer 2

In Australia, 'M' means 'recommended for mature audiences'. Typically, films such as this will have content deemed only appropriate for those of a relatively mature and sound mindset. I.E. People under 15 years are allowed to watch it, but should be prepared for more complex and possibly stressful content.

Answer 3

It is obsolete term for Mature audiences. originally there were four ratings, G- general audiences, M- mature , R restricted no one under l7 unless accompanied by a guardian or parent, and X- adults only no questions asked! a famous M picture was Airport, one of the first so-rated. M is no longer used, we have PG ( parental guidance) and Pg-l3 Parental Guidance minimum suggested age l3) so the movie code has moved along with the times, unlike dinosaurs. NC-l7 has replaced X.

Answer 4

The rating M is only for Video Games. A M rating is like R or NC-17 If it was a movie rating. (NC-17 means No one under 17 permitted)
