Hunger Games Ratings Around the World

Here, in America, the movie has been rated PG - 13 and in Britain it has a 12A rating. Now, LA Times is reporting on around the world ratings.

"Like those films, “The Hunger Games” has managed to avoid an R rating in the U.S. and its equivalent in many other countries, thus increasing the chances of reaching the widest audience. Given the potentially grim subject matter, that’s no small task, and the film may yet spark discussion regarding its suitability for young viewers. Following is a sample of how the film has been rated in various countries.
In the Canadian provinces of Alberta, the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, the film is rated 14A, and anyone under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. In the provinces of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, the Yukon and Ontario, the film is rated PG, denoting that “parental guidance is advised.”
In Norway and Denmark, the film is rated as suitable for ages 11 and older; in Germany and Finland, the film is rated for ages 12 and older. Younger audiences are permitted with adult accompaniment.
In Australia and New Zealand, the film is rated M, for mature audiences, though attendance is not restricted."

It sounds like the movie has been rated exactly where the producers want it - right around the PG - 13 line.
