The Thin Red Line is one of the most pretentious terrible war movies of all time

I think for me it just boils down to watching guns, grenades, and modern military weapons doesn't do much for me. I'm not big on action movies with heavy gun usage like battles with the Cartel either. But if you show me some sword and shield fighting I dig it.

And when you watch WWI, WWII, and Vietnam, or even a modern movie dealing with Iraq or something it tends to be that type of warm fighting I don't like. Automatic weapons, air strikes, grenades, mortars, not really my thing. Just never liked it.

So typically I will only watch something like that once, where as fights like on Braveheart or Troy I have watched 100 times. That should probably make more sense.

The only time I ever ever truly enjoyed a WWII movie with fighting was Enemy at the Gates where it was this cat and mouse game between two snipers. That I enjoyed.
I think what you like is a war movie without fighting. I've seen a few. There was this movie few years ago about 2 brothers in England. The younger brother went off to war the other well you will have to watch the movie. There was another one in WW1 about soldier who didn't want to fight and how badly he was treated because of that
