Exactly, the default is 'http', which fetches information from the web;
it has nothing to do with the plain text data files (files like
mpaa-ratings-reasons.list.gz, in this case).
This example works for me:
from imdb import IMDb
i = IMDb('http')
matrix = i.search_movie('the matrix (1999)')[0]
i.update(matrix)
print matrix, matrix.movieID
print matrix['mpaa']
I've tried with both 'lxml' and 'beautifulsoup' parsers [1].
It prints 'Rated R for sci-fi violence and brief language.', by the way.

Can you report the exception? I need to be sure where the problem lies.

[1] can be forced with the "useModule" argument of imdb.IMDb (e.g.:
useModule='lxml' or useModule='beautifulsoup'); by default it
first tries 'lxml', falling back to 'beautifulsoup'.
