It seems like a subject ripe for cinematic expression.

Yep. There is also Behind Enemy Lines, which starred Owen Wilson, when they were still trying to find a use for him as an actor.

Because we're still not sure who the good guys were?  Or even if there were any "good guys" in that conflict?

And people don't want to be reminded that 40 years after WWII most of Europe and the US were happy to sit back and do nothing about ethnic cleansing and/or genocide.

Yeah, of the movies listed in this thread that was the best one.

I liked the first 20 minutes of The Savior, the rest wasn't that good.

There was also a black humor movie about the war too.  I forget the title.

+1 for Shot Through the Heart.

He said action flick.  Only the Owen Wilson flick really qualifies and it wasn't good.  The others were dramas or morality plays with a lot of Euro angst and exposition.

There were really no good troops there, they were all kind of a hodge-podge of amateur killers, thugs, and psychopaths and we really didn't have to do much to shut them down.  Not like Fallujah or Sangin or Tora Bora.

Novislav Djajic is also a convicted war criminal, and that's a Dinaric face if I ever saw one.

Yes, he's a convicted war criminal. Saudi Arabia is also turning Bosnia into a new colony.

So, who are the real criminals here.

A good bit of Spy Game took place in Sarajevo I think. Also Behind Enemy Lines is a good flick. But to answer the question, it's probably because nobody knows what the Hell those wars are about, and the American viewing public really wouldn't relate.

The Kosovar Albanians were primarily Islamists, thieves, and criminals.  And no friends of the USA.  

But the Serb nationalists were and are Putin's puppets; we should have made them our cannon fodder when we had the chance.

Russia has always been closely tied with the Serbs, but that doesn't mean the Serbs were wrong.

NATO had no business getting involved in a civil war in Yugoslavia and certainly not on the side of the Muslims.

Underground, directed by Emir Kusturica

Edit: ok so it's a thought provoking European movie, not as much 'splodeyboom as American sensibilities prefer. Still, it's a masterpiece that encapsulates that war perfectly.
