Corrected entry: When the children are 13, they go to the cinema to see the film "Se7en". When "Se7en" was released it was given an "R" rating, meaning no-one under 17 would be permitted entry without an accompanying adult. Thus, they should not have been able to see that film.

The Butterfly Effect (2004)
Correction: Tommy is a sadistic child at this time. So him going to see a movie that he shouldn't see is probably the least of his worries. Also, he told his sister to get that look off her face before they get busted which could imply that they lied to someone or doing something illegal.
Correction: Also, at the time children under 17 only needed an adult to purchase the tickets, not accompany them into the movie. That changed in 1999, Se7en came out in 95.

Correction: Since when does a movie theatre actually enforce that rating? Many kids can also buy for one movie and walk into another. Also, the rating system isn't law, so the theatre doesn't have to enforce it if they don't want to.
