Why Is My Super Ex-Girlfriend Rated PG-13?
Don’t assume this superhero themed movie is kid material. The PG-13 rating is a result of the many adult-oriented sexual jokes, crude remarks, and nudity. (You will note the MPAA description doesn’t even mention the violent content, giving parents a clue about the sexual focus.) Coarse language is frequent, and includes direct slang references for sexual activity. Violence typical of a superhero movie includes guns being fired at people, many physical altercations, and car accidents—one involving a pedestrian. Principal characters are seen drinking socially.
