Answer 2

The British film rating equivalent of an American R rating is the 15 certificate. In the UK, the 15 certificate restricts viewers under the age of 15 from watching the film in cinemas or purchasing it on DVD or Blu-ray. This rating indicates that the film may contain strong language, violence, or other content deemed unsuitable for younger audiences without adult supervision.
