‘Muppets Most Wanted’, ‘Last Days on Mars’ and ‘Can a Song Save Your Life?’ In Today’s MPAA Ratings

Well, I don’t know about you, but I was a little surprised to see the sequel to The Muppets is already completed and the MPAA has officially offered a PG rating for Muppets Most Wanted. They didn’t waste any time getting that made.

Additionally we have Can A Song Save Your Life? starring Keira Knightley and Mark Ruffalo, which premiered in Toronto and was quickly snatched up by the Weinstein Co. Personally I sort of hated the film, but there were plenty of others that fell for the schmaltz, but I can’t help but wonder how it’s going to do with an R rating.

Daniel Schechter‘s Jackie Brown sequel, Life of Crime, based on the Elmore Leonard novel closed the Toronto Festival and has yet to be acquired, but it now has an R rating it can flaunt along with the cast, which includes Jennifer Aniston, Tim Robbins, Isla Fisher, Will Forte, John Hawkes and Mos Def.

And, finally, the Liev Schreiber starrer The Last Days On Mars gets an R rating. I caught the film in Cannes earlier this year (read my review here) and thought it was decent, but I wouldn’t go in expecting much.
