Screenrant's 25 Best Medieval Movies of All Time (Mar2024 Update)

"The best medieval movies require endless research to prevent them from becoming inaccurate, huge budgets to cater to the elaborate sets, costumes, and props required, and must often strike a balance between staying true to history and entertaining a modern audience. It's certainly no easy feat. Despite the difficulties, the best medieval movies have been incredibly successful, both commercially and critically. The medieval period is fertile ground for epic tales of glory on the battlefield and romanticized reimaginings of historical events, but it seems to have fallen out of favor somewhat in recent years. High fantasy stories set in fictional worlds seem to be much more prevalent they shouldn't be a complete replacement for the medieval setting. Still, from the pioneering years of cinema in the first half of the twentieth century to the huge blockbusters of the modern day, there are more than a few of the best medieval movies that are more than worthwhile." - screenrant.com
