MAX PAYNE PG-13 RATING?


Videogame adaption MAX PAYNE might get a PG-13 rating, making it more family friendly, than the game it's based on. According to a TotalFilm coverage, MARK WAHLBERG and the rest of the cast weren't allowed to cuss and drop die "F-Bomb". Here is a snippet:

Ludacris: "Just because it might be PG-13, doesn’t mean there won’t be action and excitement."

Wahlberg: "It’s like Sin City with a little more reality, but why swear? What are you trying to prove? Too much swearing would make it less – not more – adult. There was no need for me to drop the ‘F’-bomb, y’know? John and I just made sure that Max has an arsenal of weapons and cool dialogue – which is far more powerful than just cussing all the time. Neither of us wanted to hide behind bad language. We just wanted as many people to see it as possible."
[...] But there is gunplay, assassins, fist-fights, drugs, death, sex... In censor-board terms, there are definitely ‘adult themes’...Well, I think you can have all of that without showing too much blood,” shrugs Wahlberg. “It’s just not needed. We didn’t want to make some big gorefest."

Sounds more like SIN CITY without balls to me.
And what's up with that "we want as many people to see it as possible"-bullshit? Let them watch it, when they're old enough. I couldn't watch ROBOCOP when it came out...
Damn!

    Dont forget the Dark Knight also got an PG-13 rating and its a dark movie. I will wait and see how good Max Payne really is and if it would be better with an R rating.

    No Mark. Max Payne the game had a great script, it was beautifully written. The movie should be a gorefest, why would you want "as many people to see it as possible" aka "teenagers" to see a movie based on a m-rated game.

    I think its safe to say, this movie was completely about money.
