*lol* ... of *course* the story and theme is unaffected ... </sarcasm>

incidentally, most countries have a classification system whereby the film
is rated so that if it is felt that those below a certain age should not see
the movie, they cannot - see the following:

   USA http://www.filmratings.com/
    UK http://www.bbfc.co.uk/
CANADA http://www.media-awareness.com/eng/indus/filmvid/film1.htm

There is also a pretty good list at
http://www.imdb.com/Sections/Certificates/types_all - I notice Pakistan is
conspicuous by it's absence, amongst other countries.
