Kirby Dick's documentary on the nonsensically prudish Motion Picture Association of America...the fun doc follows Dick as he and an excellent lesbian detective fall down the MPAA's rabbit hole...

Not Yet Rated is well worth seeing...

| Original Score: 7/10 | Feb 9, 2011

[The film] has a refreshingly snotty sense of humor...Dick would put a banana peel out on Ventura Boulevard if he thought a[n MPAA] rater might slip on it.

Even if you've never given a second thought to who bestows ratings on movies or how those ranks are given, Kirby Dick's enlightening documentary will catch you up in its infectious spin of curiosity.

| Original Score: B+ | Apr 20, 2009

...a smug little documentary...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 14, 2007

What the film doesn't offer is much hope -- or much balance.

| Original Score: B | Aug 3, 2007

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 14, 2007

Takes a comical look at the ratings board and its nefarious activities in giving a film a rating.

| Original Score: B | Mar 31, 2007

Dick bares the graphic inconsistencies in the Hollywood ratings game, especially when it comes to the great divide between violence (bring it on) and sex (don't take it off).

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 22, 2007

A movie that is at once eye-opening and hilarious.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 19, 2007

If you care about the freedom of expression, including in the film industry, this documentary feature is important as a learning tool.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 19, 2007

a head-spinning mystery, a brisk history of motion picture censorship in the U.S. and entertaining, often hilarious, visual proof of Hollywood's hypocrisy in his latest film.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 19, 2007

A damning documentary which indicts the MPAA as a thinly-veiled arm of the handful of Hollywood studios which have come to dominate the film industry.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jan 19, 2007

It takes balls for documentary filmmaker Kirby Dick to take on the all-powerful Motional Picture Association of America (MPAA) ratings board.

| Jan 19, 2007

Um protesto importante e ocasionalmente revelador, mas que se enfraquece por não oferecer alternativas viáveis ao sistema de classificação da MPAA e pela auto-inclusão desnecessária do diretor na discussão.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 13, 2007

In the absolute height of irony, THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED earned an NC-17.

| Original Score: B | Jan 11, 2007

It makes a good case for some all-American free enterprise to come up with an alternative.
