U - Universal
A "U" rated film should be suitable for all audiences of four years and over.
PG - Parental Guidance
Unaccompanied children of any age may watch.
12/12A - Suitable for 12 years and over
12 and 12A are based on the same criteria, and the material only suitable for people aged 12 and up. 12A is only used in the cinema, where no-one under 12 can see a 12A film unless accompanied by an adult.
15 - Suitable only for 15 years and over
These tend to have stronger themes, for example discrimination, drugs, horror, imitable behaviour, nudity and violence.
18- Suitable only for adults
These are based on the decision that adults are free to choose their own entertainment.
R18 - "To be shown only in specially licensed cinemas, or supplied only in licensed shops, and to adults of not less than 18 years"
The ones your mother warned you about.
So there you go, age ratings and stuff. Were probably going to go for 15 in our production.
