One of the age ratings of the Motion Picture Association. This rating is aimed at general audiences, hence the title. Because of the association of the G rating with kids' movies, Avoid the Dreaded G Rating happens, and people deliberately add profanity, sexual innuendo, or similar into their movies so their film won't be rated G.
The rating has become less used since the 2010s, with most films that would have gotten it in previous years getting a PG certificate.
