Megalopolis is rated R primarily for its inclusion of sexual content, nudity, drug use, strong language, and some violence. These elements combine to warrant the Restricted (R) rating from the Motion Picture Association (MPA), indicating that viewers under 17 require an accompanying parent or adult guardian.
The R rating signifies that the film contains mature material, which parents are strongly cautioned against for younger viewers. For Megalopolis, specific aspects contributing to this rating include:
- Sexual Content: Scenes or thematic elements that depict sexual activity or suggest a mature sexual theme.
- Nudity: Instances of full or partial nudity present in the film.
- Drug Use: Portrayals of characters engaging in the use of illicit drugs or substance abuse.
- Language: The presence of strong or frequent profanity.
- Violence: Depictions of violence, which, while not necessarily extreme, are significant enough to contribute to a mature rating.
These specific content descriptors help audiences and parents understand the nature of the film's mature themes before viewing.
