Christopher Nolan'S third and final Batman film The Dark Knight Rises has been given a PG-13 rating in the USA.
The information was shown on a Warner Bros website page spotted by the Nolanfans forum.
The film, released on July 20 in the Us and UK, has been awarded the same classification as its 2008 predecessor The Dark Knight and is described as containing "some intense sequences of violence and action, some sensuality and language."
No running time is yet known, despite some wild stories (such as three-hour durations) flying across the internet in recent months as off-the-cuff comments and the faintest wisps of speculation were transformed into fact by those hungry for information.
A UK classification has not yet been announced.
The Dark Knight was graded a 12A by the British Board of Film Classification and deemed to contain "moderate violence and sustained threat."

Calls for higher age rating on films as report shows major Brit flicks featured top tobacco brands more than Hollywood
Some of Britain's biggest recent films have come under fire from doctors who say they are more likely than Hollywood movies to include specific cigarette brands.
They are demanding an overhaul of the film classification system so that cinema releases are given a higher age rating depending on the amount and type of tobacco consumption they portray.
Such a move is needed because the presence of smoking on the big screen is likely to influence young viewers, according to researchers from Nottingham University, writing in the journal Thorax.
They counted the number of incidents of smoking or smoking-related references or depictions in the 15 most popular films released in the UK between 1989 and 2008. "Although smoking imagery and branding images in the most popular films have become substantially less common over the past 20 years,...

I had not heard of Cinema Retro until I heard about the interview with David Hedison about Richard Basehart. Then I read the first part of the story about Richard Basehart and was glad to find this website. So much about people I remembered from films and television of my childhood. I just rediscovered Richard Basehart and David Hedison with the release of the DVD's of "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea". I have been viewing the films of both actors, and have gained a greater appreciation of Richard Basehart's acting ability. He was so much underrated as an actor. Even when the scripts on "Voyage" were not as good as they could have been, Richard Basehart put the effort into his role to make it good throughout the life the series. The chemistry between Richard Basehart and David Hedison helped keep the series exciting.
