Certificate rating 12


Films with a 12A and 12 rating contain scenes that aren't widely suitable for children aged under 12. No one younger than 12 can see a 12A film in a cinema unless seeing it with an adult.Whereas the 12 rating is used on DVDs as you cant check when people watch the DVD at home if they are over 12 or not.

Films that are rated 12 tend not to show gruesome details in fights and also don't have swearing in them. Film rated at a 12a are forbidden from portraying any homophobic or racial ideas unless they are condemned within the movie. Sexual references are made along with scenes that show a couple disappearing into a bedroom as this doesn't directly tell us what is going on; they could just be going in there to "hug".

Films that are rated 12a and have done well at the box office:
  Guardians of the Galaxy
  Divergent
  Captain America: The Winter Soldier
  Avengers Assemble
  The Dark Knight
