Desert Eagle Mark I
The Mark I is the earliest variation of the Desert Eagle put into production. First introduced late in 1983 and initially chambered only in .357 Magnum, it is distinguishable from later Desert Eagle models by the "teardrop" shape of its safety button. The Mark I's slide release also has only a single step, while the safety on the Mark VII and Mark XIX has several steps. This is the most common Desert Eagle model in films made prior to the early 1990s, though it has nonetheless appeared in numerous more recent productions (most notably Austin Powers in Goldmember).

Desert Eagle Mark VII
The Mark VII was an improved variation of the original Desert Eagle. Introduced in 1990, it featured a re-designed safety lever (which is the most visible external difference from the Mark I) and slide release, as well as an adjustable trigger. Unlike the Mark I, it was available in both .41 Magnum and (briefly) .50 AE. This was the most likely Desert Eagle to be seen in movies made in the 1990s.

Desert Eagle Mark XIX
The Mark XIX is the current production model of the Desert Eagle, and the most likely to be seen in movies made since 2000, particularly in its .50 AE version (after being popularized by The Matrix). It was first introduced in 1995, and its most obvious visual difference from the earlier Desert Eagle models in that it features scope rails over the barrel (it also has taller cocking serrations on the slide). Unlike the earlier Desert Eagle models, the Mark XIX can be switched to any caliber simply by swapping the barrels.
Also note that the .357 and .44 Magnum versions of the Mark XIX have a unique "fluted" barrel, which the .50 AE version does not have. Any Desert Eagle Mark XIX that lacks this fluting would have to be the .50 AE model.
