The Bona International Film Group will implement a self-rating system for films shown at its cinemas, most likely to be launched in mid-February, Beijing Daily reported.

The lack of a nationwide film rating system has been a centerpiece of criticism for many years in China. There is also consensus that certain adult content in films may be unsuitable for children.

Bona said its rating system is not necessarily intended to bar minors from partial nudity or violence in the films, but provide guidance, adding that the elderly also benefit from the system.

據(jù)《北京日?qǐng)?bào)》報(bào)道，博納影業(yè)集團(tuán)表示，下屬院線將自行推行電影分級(jí)制度，或許從2月中旬開始實(shí)行。

我國缺少全國性的電影分級(jí)體系，多年以來一直是批評(píng)的焦點(diǎn)。此前有共識(shí)認(rèn)為，電影中的一些成人內(nèi)容不適合兒童觀看。

博納說自己的分級(jí)制度不是刻意在讓未成年人遠(yuǎn)離電影中的裸露或暴力場(chǎng)景，而是提供一種指導(dǎo)，并表示老年人其實(shí)也會(huì)從分級(jí)制度中獲益。
