- It prevents younger children from viewing films which could cause distress or en-doctrinate them to believe that things such as guns and other weapons are good to use.
- Gives an idea of what kind of audience will like the film.
Disadvantage
- Main disadvantage of film classification is that a lot of children stories/cartoons (e.g Spiderman, Batman) have become more adult-like and so have higher age restrictions... A lot of Batman films have 15 certificates were as Batman was meant to be a children's favourite superhero. Spiderman's movie release caused a lot of controversy as it was rated a 12 and because of protests saw the introduction of the 12A certificate.
