Don't you agree that a DVD is a video and calling it a movie is an abuse of language?
You can watch a movie on DVD but DVD doesn't equal movie. You can watch a movie in theater but theather doesn't equal movie even though we say "going to the movies".
The video is the physical object and the movie is the content. Same with a book and a novel, a CD and a song.
DVD is a video format, same as BLU-RAY or VHS. In other words, DVD, BLU-RAY and VHS are all videos, only with different formats.
Don't you rent a DVD from a Video rental shop?

"A video rental shop/store is a physical retail business that rents home videos"

As I said, the MPAA rating is an attribute of the movies, not the videos. It's displayed below the movie title, before the movie genres.
About Aladdin, it's weird that the rating is missing, I think you've found a bug, thank you very much!
