It's actually quite easy. Just focus on the victims rather than the killers. Come and see, Grave of the Fireflies, Catch-22, All quiet on the Western Front, …

I've only watched Grave of the fireflies once. Can't bring myself to watch it again.

Fun fact: that debuted as a double feature with My Neighbor Totoro.

All Dogs Go To Heaven and Pet Semetary.

Babe and Vasa De Noces.

Fantastic Mr Fox and Antichrist.

Wall-E and Irreversible is a stretch.

So maybe Pinball Wizard and The Accused.

Bump for Come and See. I believe it's a government sponsored Belarusian anti-war film and it's pure horror. Watch that if you believe all war films glorify war.

Schindler's List...

Also Gundam: War in the Pocket. Great miniseries that zooms way into a small conflict to really focus on how war effects everyone.
