What would a Sacha Baron Cohen movie be without a little controversy and this time it's coming from the MPAA. According to
The Hollywood Reporter, Cohen's new film
Bruno will apparently be hit with an initial NC-17 rating, if it is submitted in its current state.
Apparently the filmmakers were told of the ratings news, even though they have yet to submit the film for a final ratings determination. The film will be released on July 10 by Universal, which is aiming for an R rating.
We'll certainly keep you posted on this story as soon as we have more information.

"This film is not yet rated"
Seriusly, the MPAA is as secret as the freaking CIA.
Filmmakers are never allowed to know who these people are who are judging there movies.
The rating system is better then the first but it does not work and it is still a form of censorship, especially when a movie is given an NC-17 rating, because most cinemas and companies wont even tuch a movie who has that rating.
Jack Valenti the guy who created the MPAA keeps pulling out from his ass a made up answer where he constantly says that about 80 % of all adults think its a perfect system.
The MPAA should not excist because it is a form of censorship as well.
Keep the children safe. HA! Thats bullshit and children should be able to watch scarry movies and violent movies filled with lots of lots of cursing!
oh by the way this movie is going probably be freaking hilarius!
