Russia Gives Adult Rating to POWER RANGERS
The new POWER RANGERS movie has gotten an adult 18+ rating from Russia.
No reason was given for the new rating, though POWER RANGERS has one of its two female heroes hint she may be homosexual in one scene. Russia passed a law in 2013 that banned “propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations.”
MOVIEGUIDE®’s annual comprehensive analysis of the theatrical movie box office has shown, year in and year out, that movies with no homosexual references or content whatsoever make more money than movies containing such elements.
