Legally no. Ratings are made specifcallky on an age related basis. These are as follows:-
Six movie rating categories exist, although a movie may have been re-rated by the time of its video/DVD release.
G, into which anyone is allowed
PG, into which anyone is allowed but parental consent is advised, and is down to the discretion of the cinema or video library
12A, a cinema-only cert, which those over the age of 12 or those with parental consent may watch. Was formerly called 12PG, does not exist for video releases
15A, a cinema-only cert, into which those over the age of 15 or those with parental consent may enter. Was formerly called 15PG.
16, a cinema-only rating for content which imposes less restriction on violent content, sexual content, and drug usage. Very few films receive this rating, and those that do generally are either cut or uprated to 18 on video release.
18, into which only those over the age of 18 may enter

If you have someone over 18 with you, then yes. Most cinema's don't ID you unless you look younger anyway, but go ahead and take someone old enough with you

I couldn't say about England. In the US, when I was in High School, I used to go to adults only movies with a friend who was my age and was 6 feet 7 inches tall. He didn't look like a "kid", but he was clearly about my age, and we never had trouble getting in.

I wouldn't know about a cinema in England, but in South Africa they don't even ask how old you are!

it depends on the 17 year old really. if the dude is mature enough to not take the mindless crap that seriously, then sure why not? 17 and 18 are only a year's difference anyway.

Legally, no.
Can you get away with it? Probably.
