A well made film will be good whatever the rating as long as maker doesnt allow it to comprimise his creativity, but if the maker is restricted by the studios forcing it to be a lower rating the film can suffer as a result as the orginal thought for the scene cant be used, and has to be changed to fit the rating.
Would it be hard to release 2 versions a "directors cut" and a normal version, with differnet ratings? I dont know a lot about the film industry so dont know if its possible, would it cost a lot more etc, but i like going to the cinema, the whole experiance of it and waiting months for the dvd aint fun. I tend to prefer the directors cuts and im sure a lot of people are with me.

if they did release it as such it would be over time otherwise it would cannabalise sales. That's why they do it for DVDs usually. A few have seen theatrical releases like Donnie Darko, Apocolypse Now, Star Wars... but it's usually too expensive.
an article on that subject.
