I really enjoyed the Harry Potter movies, but they are not particularly re-watchable for me. Not sure why. (The LOTR movies, on the other hand, I could watch -- and have watched -- over and over.)

Interesting question, but I don't think everyone answered it in the way I believe you meant. I think you were asking about movies that were so upsetting that you'd probably avoid them again. So, to me, that certainly wouldn't include Sideways, and it wouldn't include any movie where only one scene was upsetting.

I don't know if I'll ever be able to watch The Grey Zone or again, but one movie I'm certain I'll never watch again is Wit.

I can not again watch that scene where the soldier has the drawn-out hand-to-hand fight with the Nazi and ends up being slowly stabbed from sheer exhaustion. I've been pinned under a barbell doing chest presses before, and I know the feeling of the weight bearing down and there's nothing you can do to stop it.

Schindler's List, it's long.
The Wrestler, it's just sad though VERY well written.
To Kill A Mockingbird, if you are use to color movies, it is very different though it us a great old movie.

The Deerhunter.

Too tough to watch more than once... But it was both intense and excellent. It was THE movie of it's era.
