The 13th Warrior is one that comes to mind that hasn't already been mentioned. Always loved that movie.

Including some stuff that tends to be forgotten on these kinds of lists:
Flesh and Blood - Rutger Hauer as a Renaissance-era mercenary...
Season of the Witch - Nic Cage and Ron Perlman as Crusaders escorting a witch to her execution...
Black Death - Sean Bean and Eddie Redmayne as a knight and monk investigating rumors of a mysterious village in the swamp immune to the plague...
Ironclad - James Purefoy, Brian Cox, Kate Mara and Paul Giamotti at the battle for Rochester Castle...
In The Name Of The Rose - Sean Connery and Christian Slater as 14th-century monks investigating murder and heresy...
The Pit and the Pendulum - F Murray Abraham as Torquemada...
Robin Hood - the Russell Crowe version
The Deathstalker films, The Warrior and the Sworceress, Barbarian Queen... And a ton of other low-budget late '70's-early'80's low-budget cheesy stuff, lol.

They do date you. These are also all movies I grew up with. The only movies on this list I still like to watch, though, are the Harryhausen movies.

A great list so far, and I'll add one that's wouldn't be traditionally seen as a D&D movie, but I think captures the essence pretty well:
Guardians of the Galaxy
It's got a ragtag group of heroes that come together, work out their inter-party conflict and bring down the big bad all while fun along the way. Sure it's not fantasy, but it's a pretty dang good D&D film.
