| | |  'Driving Lessons' gets rating in US & Ireland
Back in May, the British Board of Film Classifications announced that ' Driving Lessons', starring Rupert Grint, was to receive a 15 certificate, meaning that if you are below that age, you will not be permitted to see the film in cinemas in the UK. The reasons cited for this decision included "strong language".
The Motion Picture Association of America has now given ' Driving Lessons' a PG-13 certificate, meaning that anyone below that anyone below that age must be accompanied by an adult, in order to see the film in the US. The reasons stated for this rating include "language, sexual content and some thematic material."
Additionally the movie will also be shown on ITV1 as a part of the British station's autumn line-up, though no exact date has been announced yet. UPDATE: The Irish Film Censors Office has announced that ' Driving Lessons' will get a 15A certificate in Ireland, meaning anyone below that age must be accompanied by an adult in order to see the movie. Interestingly, the film runs at 98 minutes in the UK, but only 87 minutes in Ireland.
' Driving Lessons' will be released in the UK on September 8th and on October 13th in the US.

Always suspected that it'd be rated PG13 for the US (& I'm assuming it'll be like that for Canada, since I read somewhere that Oct 13 is the North American release).
Can't wait for it  |

There might be some editing going on, like Emma said, especially for Ireland-that's quite a difference in length.

Ah man. I have to wait til the DVD comes out or watch it on ITV1. I'm too young to watch it in England!  In America I would be old enough! How sad!  | |

Well, all I can say is that I'm glad I live in my own little part of the world, not t3h UK or USA. I mean, no rating are ever set up here. That probably is bad, but we know what to watch and what not to.  And no one ahs to force it on us. Still, thanks for the news, Emma!

Woohoo! It's coming in October and I'll be able to see it without an adult or with. It's up to me. So yipee for that. I look forward to see Rupert's acting outside of being Ron Weasley. Rock on Rupe! | |
