Technically it is. A genre is just a style or category and a movie's age rating is a category. It's maybe not the only one you want to choose your films based on but that's a different discussion.

Expendables 1 is a different genre to Expendables 3?

I think we both know that I was using literal definition to make a semantic point.
I didn't say it would hold up or remain valid under real scrutiny but within the Superhero/Comic book adaptation scene you know as well as I do that Wolverine has gone from Universal ratings to R rated and every iteration is significantly different. I would definitely say R rated Logan is a completely different genre(distopic western) to PG rated Wolverine in X men 1&2 or the cartoons.

X Men could pass for a family film. It pretty much is.

It's both a different style and in a different category so yes.

Expendable 3 was a kids sequel to an adult franchise. I'd have no problem saying it lacked enough of the essential elements to exclude it as a hard R action flick and those differences are enough to change the tone of the film.
The fact that children are too young to appreciate the array of collected 80's and 90's action stars is what made it the least popular with people who expected a third explosion-filled, muscle bound, quip laden death fest and instead got a slightly sexier version of Wild Hogs...

You should understand that you are not wrong, I am not disagreeing with that critique.

But you are not talking about what you think you're talking about.
