I assume by battles, you mean large groups of people fighting each other?

Braveheart seemed to be somewhat realistic. Seven Samurai was more guerrilla warfare, I'm not sure that would count as a battle cheifly fought with swords. Good battle scenes, but I thought most of the villagers were using spears, not swords.

Actually Kurosawa's films do show some campaigns, the stories taking place amidst war, like Yojimbo. But they weren't realistic, not until did the style of audiences in the movies can we call it realistic.
