Monster Hunter rated PG-13 for creature action & violence

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

EVENT HORIZON writer/director Paul W.S. Anderson's upcoming live-action feature based on the MONSTER HUNTER video game franchise sports a killer cast including Milla Jovovich, Tony Jaa, Ron Perlman, Diego Boneta, Josh Helman, Tip "T.I." Harris, and Meagan Good. And today we have word that the movie has been rated PG-13 for "sequences of creature action and violence throughout." 

While I would have hoped for a hard R-rating, whatever, this works.
