How films are catagorised in movie rental places. A grouping based on shared similar characteristics. In theory genre exists for convenience, allowing people to identify broad groups without having to name specific titles from within the group. In other words, you can decide on a film to rent without having to go through reading the back of each and every box. Often however there are discrepancies with the categorisations, particularly as the boundaries between genres can be quite fluid. In practice this means genre categories can be less than helpful. The term also applies to other media such as music, books, theatre and art. Urban Dictionary

An unncessary label attached to music, movies, novels, etc. giving way to discrimination, stereotypes, and prejudice. Urban Dictionary

A way to trick people into thinking there's some order and reason to creative thought. Music and literature aren't a science. When someone starts talking about which genres they like, be it of music or literature, they probably don't know what they're talking about. The same type of person will ask "What type of music/books do you like?" The best answer to a question like that is to name the specific things that you like, and let them come up with a label for them. Urban Dictionary
