BVA103 Out of The Blue

Out of the Blue posterOut of the Blue Classification


Director, Out of The Blue, Robert Sarkies.


Chief Censor,Bill Hastings


Conclusion of Classification

Restricted 15

Summary.
I personally think that this film should really remain as a 15 maybe even a 16 a one of the comments made about the film is that there are way worse films out there yeah can also understand the people who had
to suffer through this outrageous event but it also
has history elements like: Once Were Warriors, What becomes of the Brokenhearted,Crooked Earth E T C
all of these give an insight I feel that is all the end goal was most of these things depicted can and do happen
these days in all other places in the world how ever
Censorship must be taken into public knowledge.
