Which movies do you think are usually the best overall?? My choice is PG-13 ones. I think PG movies are often too tame, while R rated ones often go overboard with sex and violence just for the sake of giving people cheap thrills. PG-13 films usually seem to rely on good storytelling more than rated R films in my view. What do you all think??

I usually watch PG 13 movies the most, followed by R.

While a lot of R movies may show gratuitous sex and violence for the sake of their R rating, these are mostly bad movies anyway.

Any great R movie that would be rated PG-13 would have been irreparably damaged (edited) because of the rating code.

And I don't think that should interfere with making the best film possible.

PG-13

G is (for the most part) for little kids
PG is probably the second best but a lot of times their still kid-orientated
PG-13 is the best. Its not too dirty but its not too kiddish either
R is too gruesome sometimes, and im...scared of things like that, so yeah. R isnt a good choice for me. im not allowed to watch them anyway
NC-17...never seen anything out of that category and dont plan to.

I always tend to like PG-13 movies the best. I can't stand to watch R-rated war films or horror movies.

I usually go for R rated movies. The hard hitting movies usually have sex, violence and profanity. What can I say, those are my kind of movies. :happyface

most of the movies I like were made before there was a PG-13 so I don't know what to vote.

Rated R movies are the best. I love the blood and gore they can show in a rated R movie, and not-so-much in PG-13. I agree that alot of the best comedy movies are rate R too... they can get away w/sooo much more.

Although I like all types of movies, I'd probably go with PG-13. Their's a lot of great R rated movies too but I think a lot of them are made just to get an R rating and they don't worry as much about story content.

I like G, PG and PG-13 mostly. I look at an R from time to time, but not much.

I would go with whatever the '40s through '70s Westerns were rated as (PG-13?).

R rated films would be my second choice. Especially ones with a message, like North Country, and Boys Don't Cry. As long as the sex, and or violence add to the story, (As in the case of the two films mentioned above), it doesn't bother me. For the most part, I'm usually just not into G, or Pg films at all. Don't know if Iv'e ever even seen an NC-17 one. Probably have, just can't recall.
