Saving Private Ryan is my most epic movie. Its not like all 300 or Gladiator like, but i do believe it is EPIC and you feel like your part of something greater in the movie. Besides the epic cast of actors makes it great on its own...im not going to list them but there are literally more than a dozen AAA actors in it. Look it up. |
But did you see Shaving Ryan's Privates?

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

1 Chronicles 13:7-9
Then David and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets.

Sticking strictly to your list I would have to say Gladiator,but after seeing 300 4 times in the theaters and literally drooling over the upcoming dvd release I would have to say it's a very close second.
Biggest disappointment:Troy

Does the Matrix count as "Epic", or is this strictly non-sci-fi?

By epic, do mean in scope, or just action? Regardless, Lawrence of Arabia and Ben Hur need to be options.

3. Kingdom of Heaven
4. 300

Ironically, I don't really go for "Braveheart", I don't appreciate the graphic blood and gore of the modern movie. The great Alfred Hitchcock demonstrated how you could make a good thriller without the need for graphic illustration.

Oh my god... "Ben Hur" is a really Epic's Epic movie!!!
