8/10
"A fascinating bit of cinematic espionage... and for the most part, a total riot."
Freeze Dried Movies
Brian Juergens
2.5/5
"gonzo filmmaking ... detracts from the film's more serious charges"
Filmcritic.com
Chris Barsanti
2.5/4
"Might I suggest a new ratings category for the MPAA: NP-21 (non-parents over the age of 21 might want to skip this one altogether)."

"Takes a comical look at the ratings board and its nefarious activities in giving a film a rating."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz

"Is it possible for a documentarian to hit the bullseye and completely miss his mark on the same shot?"
FilmJerk.com
Edward Havens
B+
"This is an agenda film, pure and simple, not as diabolically one-sided as a Michael Moore screed, but certainly as passionate and entertaining."

C+
"A good idea executed with insuffient flair and clumsily put together."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
3/4
"In a little more than 90 minutes, Dick explores the hypocrisy of the way the MPAA treats sex, nudity, violence, and profanity; provides insight into the arbitrary and secretive ratings process; and names names."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
8/10
"A handy summary piece for many of the complaints about the MPAA over the years."
Window to the Movies
Jeffrey Chen
6/10
"...I was mostly just nodding and agreeing most of the way through it, as I had already heard about most of these things before."

Movies for the Masses
Joseph Proimakis
3.5/5
"[Kirby]Dick has provided an invaluable service: the inclusion of the uncut, full-on puppet sex scene from
Team America: World Police
."
Film-Forward.com
Kent Turner
3/4
"Ultimately, Dick subordinates scholarship to passion, which may be exactly what it takes to convince mainstream moviegoers that they should care about a system that shortchanges
them
when they go to the movies."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
3/4
"Dissects the current film ratings system with amusing impertinence."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
4/5
"An entertaining and strikingly important film, even if it slightly loses focus."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
4/5
"What the film doesn't offer is much hope -- or much balance."

B+
"The further its message goes, the greater the chance that someone will finally start watching a very irresponsible band of far-too-powerful watchmen."
Flipside Movie Emporium
Rob Vaux
B+
"The capper for
This Film Is Not Yet Rated
is Kirby Dick's efforts to get the very film we are watching a rating from the MPAA."
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
4.5/5
"The film brings to light numerous complaints that informed film fans have had for years, and it does so in a smoothly informative and colorfully entertaining style."
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
"The picture, deliciously, catches MPAA representatives in one lie after another, picking up on their backtracking and doublespeak about their motives and modes of operation."
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
1.5/4
"Folks who care won't learn anything and folks who don't, can't."
