Film Classifications: Ontario

It's your choice! Make your choice an informed one! 

Films and videos are classified to help you decide if a particular movie is suitable for your family. A film's content may mean that only certain age groups may see it in the theatre or rent the video from a retail outlet. In some cases it may be left to a parent or other adult to decide if a film is suitable for a younger viewer. Theatres and retail video outlets are obliged by law to enforce the age limitations.
