Khartoum (1966)

British General Gordon leads an Egyptian army in the defense of Sudanese Khartoum against "Mahdi" a Muslim leader. They both believe they are doing the will of God and have mutual respect for the other, but stand in stark opposition.

There's drama with the British government wanting to pull Gordon out without looking weak and Gordon refusing to leave though even Mahdi wants him out before he attacks. But it doesn't really matter because this movie was just so repetitively boring.
