Will it be R rated?


The video game is rated M, so the film will most likely have an R rating, but it looks expensive, and it will be a little risky to make this R rated.

reply

No it will be pg 13 and that's just fine because the games ain't that gory. It's only swearing and some blood that makes it hardly M rated.

reply

Well, the movie can be also "hardly R rated".

reply

I don't mind how rated it is, but it should be rated such that it has the same gore and language as the games. You say the games aren't that gory, and that may be right, but they are too gory for pg13. It's a big mistake to make it that way, but it's their money they put in the movie.

Unless a movie is meant for kids it's always a mistake to make it PG-13.

And if you look at the history of cinema you'll see that it has a tendency to result in more bad movies than good.

This movie being PG-13 is a massive mistake.

Exactly, I couldn't agree more. The movie has a lot of potential. Many game adaptions fail, but this one could go well, because the AC has a lot to be explored yet (ironically, that's mainly because Ubisoft failed to do so in the latest games). PG-13 just brings a lot of boundaries that aren't good for this kind of movie. I just don't get it, why would they do that? What sense does it have to make that movie, if it's not targeted towards the same audience as the game?

reply

No chance.

Deadpool's success and American Sniper's success says we should be more optimistic about R-rated Ass Creed. Fox knows a PG-13 Ass Creed couldn't work - Brotherhood was quite bloody, and it still wasn't the bloodiest game in the series.

Besides, Fox and Ubisoft both know that if an Ass Creed movie is done incorrectly, it would devalue Ass Creed as a gaming franchise and possibly sink the videogame movie genre.

reply

I was thinking the same. Deadpool's success might make Ass Creed R rated.

reply

Studios are actually less fearful of making R-rated nowadays because of the success of deadpool so I think it's more likely to get an R-rating now than it would've been last year

reply

I'd be surprised honestly. A lot of kids play rated M games, and especially this series. There's hope, but I'd be surprised because the games aren't even that bloody.

reply

Idk, I have never played the game.

reply

Well they are stretching the truth to you lol. The assassinations in the games are pretty damn bloody. Sure it's never extreme like ripping guts out, but there is a good amount of blood in some sequences. And the character you play as has these blades on his wrist that stab into people's faces, which can be pretty brutal. That weapon is a big part of the game. Or atleast the first 3, that's all I've played.

They need to go R IMO.

My son is turning eleven this month and started playing the games this past Christmas when he was 10 1/2. So far it looks like too much for my comfort, but I'm willing to look into it further when it comes out and he's another six months older.

I doubt it. PG-13 movies make way more money. It would be batter as an R. Even from the trailer I predict PG-13.

reply

It doesn't 'need' to be R rated.

reply

I have to agree here. I'm going to see it anyway.

Exactly!! The games are expensive too and yet they're rated M aka R rated.

I dont want a PG13 assassins creed movie, at all.

reply

The games are R material. Anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves. Its about assassinating people lol

PG-13 will be a big mistake it would not respect the source.

IT is Assassin'sCreed not AvengersCreed

Murder mature content blade in head long sword battle not of screen death and blurry action.


Deadpool showed repect mature material=money

Force PG-13 for mature movies = failure Total recall ,robocop,max payne...

reply

Surely Ubisoft would not let 20th Century Fox make a film of their franchise by aiming it towards a PG-13 12A demographic.It should be a clause in the contract we let you adapt our video game so long as you keep the maturity of the series. Plus it is like if they make a decent game Of Thrones video game you would expect them to make it 18/M rated.
