‘Bully’ Doc Gets PG-Rating in Canada, R Rating Stands in US

Big surprise, we have some more Bully news! The documentary just received a PG rating in Canada, however it still has an R in the US.

We talked in length about the MPAA in the latest weekly podcast, and this just goes to show the inconsistency of the ratings system, and how other countries rate films on context, and not how many f-bombs are dropped.

Director Lee Hirsch had this to say regarding Canada’s decision:

“Last night, I learned of the B.C. board’s decision to grant Bully a PG-rating. I am thrilled that kids of all ages can now join their parents, teachers, social work advocates and leaders to bring about change for this deeply important cause.”
