Start the presses, this is breaking news The complaints are about its age rating. Not about the film itself. 20 complaints, in the course of a year, about the age rating of a film, do not a news story make. Most peculiar of "The Independent" to think that it does.

But people obviously have different tastes and that’s alright because otherwise the world would be boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they thought that the under 12 crowd should be able to watch it. The toys are marketed to such folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
