What is the difference when a movie is N/R and then another DVD of the same movie is rated PG-13?

Question

Lik on prom night there is one N/R and one rated PG-13! What is the difference its the same movie!

Answer 1

Not rated means it has all the dirty stuff still in it and it is probably worse than R.

Answer 2

The PG-13 version is the one shown in theaters ans the Un Rated version is the one that didn't get past the censors

Answer 3

Well, most of the bonus features and deleted scenes and all the DVD extras aren't rated, simply because nobody ever really bothers to get a rating on all the behind-the-scenes stuff (and really, would the MPAA want to sit through all that for every movie that came out) but it usually would come out to more or less G or PG.

However, if a movie has additional scenes in it and it's NR, then that means one of two things: One, like I mentioned before, nobody bothered to get an official rating on it after they stuck the deleted scenes in so the resulting 'director's cut' or whatever would be roughly the same rating as the original movie, or two, the deleted scenes would have earned a higher rating than the film company wanted their film to have so they cut it down from, say, R, to PG-13. In that case, the unrated or uncut versions are definitely gorier or more graphic or whatever.

Answer 4

It just means there is additional material than in the theatrical version. The addition material wasn't rated by the Motion Picture Society

Answer 5

The N/R version was not shown in theaters and has additional content. thats why some movies brag about buying the "unrated" version. all it has is more content.
