If you're considering taking your kids to watch "Deadpool/Wolverine," you might want to reconsider as the highly anticipated film featuring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman has been rated Restricted-16 (R-16) by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
R-16 restricts viewership to those aged 16 and above, citing the film's mature content as the reason. The review committee was composed of Board members Bobby Andrews, Jose Alberto V and Johnny Revilla.
The R-16 classification was based on several factors, including intense violence, graphic depictions of injuries and gory scenes. The review committee noted that, despite the film's comedic elements, its graphic nature and frequency may be disturbing to under-16 viewers.
Similarly, the film "All My Friends Are Dead," distributed by Pioneer Film, has also been rated R-16. The review panel, composed of Andrews, Almira Muhlach and JoAnn Bañaga, pointed to compromising sexual content, strong horror elements, including significant sexual references and intense horror scenes, explicit violence and disturbing imagery.
In addition, a local production by Pinoyflix Films and Entertainment Production, Inc., starring Alexa Ocampo, Jeffrey Santos, Rash Flores, Lara Morena, and Simon Ibarra, received the same R-16 rating. The committee of Bañaga, Andrews and Eloisa Matias cited the film's graphic depictions of violence, blood or injury, often involving weapons or intense physical harm as key reasons for the rating. The film also shows more significant references to drug use, including scenes involving substance abuse or drug-related activities.
MTRCB Chair and CEO Lala Sotto-Antonio explained that the R-16 classification advises parents and guardians that these films contain themes, language, violence, nudity, sex, horror, and drug-related scenes unsuitable for children under 16.
