No it is not illegal. The age limit for R rated movies is 17 and above. Though a child accompanied by a parent or guardian will be allowed into the movie theater. Even to purchase a R rated movie, you have to be 17 or older.

According to the Motion Picture Association of America, in the US, an 'R' rated movie means that anyone under 17 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. It is generally considered inappropriate for parents to bring their young children to R rated movies.
