A rather typical ratings bulletin today with a smattering of titles we’ve never heard of, a couple of recognizable direct-to-video titles such as Hatchet III and Danny Trejo’s Vengeance, then a few of note such as the PG-13 for The Wolverine, a grisly R-rating for You’re Next and then a PG for Disney’s animated Cars spinoff, Planes.
