I have a really hard time watching action flicks made before: cell phones, internet, prolific security cameras, bullet proof vests, modern footware, metal detectors, modern car tires shocks and brakes, etc. These things profoundly change how everything in an action film would actually go down.

Do you mean movies actually filmed before the advent of such technological advances, but taking place in the "present" of that time? Or do you mean "period" movies, i.e. with the plot set in the past?

Do you likewise have a hard time watching war movies made before: high-resolution satellite reconnaissance, night-vision goggles, laser targeting, uranium-depleted ammunition, reactive armor, atomic subs, nuclear weapons, "smart" bombs, etc.?

Do you have a problem with "love" movies made before Internet dating, birth control pills, drive-in movie dating, etc.?

yes, if those things affect the plot.
