"North Korea's government is scrambling to prevent pirated copies of the film 2012 from getting into the country because Pyongyang fears the disaster movie could jinx its lucky year, according to a report." Kim Jong-il had mentioned that the time of 2012 North Korea with open the grand gates to becoming a rising superpower. As of April 15, 2012 this will mark the birth of Kim Il-sung, in which he is still know as "The Great Leader".
The leader of North Korea does not want his people to watch the movie 2012, because he does not want them to worry about the disaster in which might happen and he doesn't want them to get the impression that the world is going to end in the year they are due to rise in international stature which is in 2012. Japan’s Asahi newspaper reported that “numerous” North Koreans caught watching copies of the film smuggled over the border from China have been arrested. This film has been denied to all viewers in North Korea.
My outlook on this situation is that it might be a good idea to have young adults not be able to watch it because kids all over the world are worrying about the world ending in 2012 and this movie is not helping the cause of children's fears. Other wise i think that adults could watch it and when young children are old enough they could watch it, but for now i think its not suitable for their children.
