P5

Final Certificate
Final Edit

My first impression/idea of a certificate or age rating for the film was a PG or 12, as the film has no explicit dialogue but there is a small section of violence(?) when one character almost punches another.

Based off of the feedback, most of the viewers seem to be favouring PG as they believe that the content is suitable for all ages regardless. One person did agree on 12 because of the punching scene, despite the rest of the film leaning towards a U or PG rating.

Overall, I would give the final film a certificate of PG because of the censored language and suggestions of violence. In one part of the dialogue, the phrase "Oh my god" is switched around to suit the character and her origins more so the phrase has a slightly different meaning, and the punch thrown earlier misses as to not suggest intentional violence or encourage such behaviour. I also think this rating fits the tone of the film as well, if it were a U I don't think I would have put as many mysterious undertones in the title sequence or first minute of footage. Also, if it were a 12 that would suggest that the film is a lot darker than it is or includes more mature themes or language than it does.
