I don't think I quite get what you are saying. You seem to be implying that Terrance Malik made the movie to comment on how unrealistic and stereotypical hollywood war movies are rather than to make a film adaption of the novel.Why would he make a war movie that comments on how bad hollywood war movies are [and in turn put these bad elements in his film] rather than make a truly great war movie and show hollywood how this subject can be done well.
I'm sorry, but I don't find your arguement convincing, though others may agree with your take on the film.
