That was my first thought.
Gun violence complete with blood bursts, I'd guess. You'd get something with the same frequency of violence rated lower today, but you still couldn't show the hits like that.
It wasn't some bloodless Nolan movie.
Yeah that's the way it works, but like they say in the movie, every person is potentially an agent so it's not like they can just knock people out, they'll just wake up as an agent.Since they are killings the dudes in The Matrix aren't they killing them in their pods too? Those are just guards with a job with families in the matrix right? Pretty messed up when you think of it.

noIs the red pill / blue pill not supposed to be a completely on-the-nose pro-drug reference?
Temple of Doom was the reason PG-13 was created, but it was PG.
It's practically a kid's movie compared to anything from Paul Verhoeven from just a few years prior.
And Gremlins.no

Colombine, Trenchcoats and gunplay.
I dont think it was rated R in Australia as I saw it while I was in high school
It's really hard to justify nudity for plot reasons. I mean, you can maybe explain why you needed to show someone getting killed on screen but it's harder to explain why the audience had to see someone's junk. "Well, we feel his dick really moves the plot forward."If it was released today, it would need only minor changes at most to easily secure a PG-13 rating. The American rating system is completely fucked right now, with PG-13 currently allowing scores of violence but very limited nudity and no more than a single f-word, the PG rating becoming the defacto kids rating, and G being rendered basically non-existent.
Beyond what was already posted, how about the scene of the baby being nourished with liquefied dead people.
I think the one f-word thing for PG-13 has been increased to two. Several movies have gotten away with two in the past 5 or so years.If it was released today, it would need only minor changes at most to easily secure a PG-13 rating.
