Most audience members assume that PG-13 rating automatically indicates a show is not for adults, but you’d be surprised at how many excellent series can be enjoyed by the whole family, across generations. Here are the very best PG-13-rated movies and shows to stream.

You know Anthony Hopkins as the evil Hannibal Lecter, but in this film he gives a warm and heartfelt performance portraying real life New Zealand motorcycle legend Burt Munro who set a land speed record in 1967 on a hand-built 1920 Indian. It's a story of never giving up on your dream even in the face of ridicule and opposition. Hopkins' performance turns what could have been just another schmaltzy formulaic story line into true gold. You'll be cheering for Burt/Anthony by the end!
