Check out Stalingrad (1993) and the older adaptations of All Quiet (both of these are far more closer to the book and also it's themes too). Another great anti-war film is Paths of Glory (1957) which is comparable to All Quiet in some ways.

If you haven't already seen it, Come and See (1985) is an absolute masterpiece.

I was going to mention Paths of Glory. That one kind of takes the cake.

And the Ascent, by the director of Come and See’s late wife. Both make for an excellent pairing of Russian war movies.
