Rolling Stone | Peter TraversAdd Critic to Favorites

Kirby Dick's indispensable guerrilla attack on the film-ratings system gives Hollywood a swift, smart and hilarious kick in its institutional, hypocritical ass.Read the full review

The Onion (A.V. Club) | Scott TobiasAdd Critic to Favorites

It thoroughly eviscerates the MPAA and makes a solid case that the culture has paid the price for its censorious practices. His (Dick's) attacks are the equivalent of shooting ducks in a barrel, but these ducks had it coming.Read the full review

The New York Times | Dana StevensAdd Critic to Favorites

Feisty, intellectually engaging.Read the full review

Variety | Todd McCarthyAdd Critic to Favorites

Never really addresses why aspects of the ratings don't work, proposes concrete improvements or compares the system to those in other countries. Still, picture's bracing, hilarious and out-there elements make it a landmark.Read the full review
