- Epic film (Wikipedia)
Epic films have large scale, sweeping scope, and spectacle. The term is slightly ambiguous, sometimes designating a film genre and at other times simply big-budget films. Like epics in the classical literary sense, it is often focused on a heroic character. An epic’s ambitious nature helps to set it apart from other genres such as the period piece or adventure film.
