A board from the MPAA evaluates the film and rates it based on sexual content, violence, nudity, language and theme.  There are five film classifications including G, PG, PG13, R and NC-17.  These ratings allow you to decide for whom the film is appropriate and what you can expect when you sit down.

Film companies bring their films to be rated voluntarily, and if they don’t like the rating they receive, they can re-cut the film and submit it again for review.

Shawn Ku made a quite a stir at the Sundance Film Festival with his music short, “Pretty Dead Girl.”

In addition to Maria Bello and Michael Sheen, the film also includes an interesting cast including Moon Bloodgood, Alan Tudyk, Kyle Gallner, Austin Nickols and Meat Loaf.  Executive producers include Mark Moran, Richard Gabai and Richard Iott.

Michael Sheen stars in this new film along with Maria Bello.  Other celebrities include Moon Bloodgood, Alan Tudyk, Kyle Gallner, Austin Nickols and Meat Loaf.

A Welsch actor, Michael Sheen is become best known for portraying public figures such as Tony Blair in “The Deal,” David Frost in “Frost/Nixon” and others.  He was appointed as an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 2009 and was named Actor of the Year by GQ Magazine in 2009.

When you see an adventure movie like “Car Jacked” or “Beautiful Boy” produced by Eric Gozlan and Gold Rush Entertainment, you’ll want to know whether or not to bring your children.  The movie ratings help you to know this information.  If the film is rated G, it’s for all audiences.  PG suggest that young children might not be the appropriate audience for the film.  PG-13 let’s you know that the film is not suitable for those under 13, while R is inappropriate for those under 17.  An NC-17 rating instructs the theater not to let anyone in who is under 17 no matter what.

These ratings help theaters to know how to monitor the audience, and help viewers to know what is appropriate for themselves and their families.

For instance, ”Car Jacked,” an independent movie recently produced by Eric Gozlan, is considered an action and adventure movie.  These movies usually have heroes and a fast plot line.

Comedies are moving intended to make you laugh.  These include traditional and romantic comedies.  Dramas often include historical movies, epics, westerns, fantasy and more.  Science fiction is sometimes in this category, and sometimes given its own category.

Produced by Eric Gozlan, the CEO of Gold Rush Entertainment, Car Jacked is about a familiar, and terrifying topic.  In this film a single mom and her child are carjacked at the hands of a bank robber.  The plot includes their fight to escape alive.
