What to Know

Critics Consensus

Though its narrative themes are all too familiar, Epic is beautifully animated and crafted with just enough flair to make for solid family entertainment.

Produces images of poetic power ... The catch is that the world the filmmakers create is far more interesting than the story they tell in it in it or the characters they put in it. Go to Full Review Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture 05/27/2013
For all its attempts at wonder and spectacle and play, Epic is mostly a slog. Go to Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom 05/26/2013

2/4
Only the very young will draw much from the generic storytelling, while the handsome animation of the natural world is wasted on dull characters and unexciting situations. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/07/2020

The more I allowed myself to be immersed in the visuals of Epic the more satisfied I became. Go to Full Review Leslie Combemale Cinema Siren 07/30/2019
Knowing the state of the animation industry, and how artists and animators put their hearts and souls into their craft, hoping to create something truly special, makes this end result very disappointing indeed. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago S @Thiagostone Feb 26 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Waniya S @RT99557891 Nov 23 Oh this was sooo good. Literally the most beautiful love story, the way they held onto to each other brb im crying See more Chenay S @Chenay Nov 9 I love the story and the animation very cool concept See more Biggie B. @BiggieBaller19 Oct 17 The plot line is a bit dark for a kids movie but the title truly speaks for itself See more james o @RT63376403 Oct 4 the film is based on Star Wars, Avatar, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Smurfs, Life of Pi and FernGully: The Last Rainforest. See more Karen A @RT03917260 Aug 27 The modern day FernGully! Visually beautiful, awesome voice work, and something I definitely want to see a sequel to! Even though with Disney's acquisition of Fox, and the ending of Blue sky studios, that's unlikely to happen. Which is a pity because if you're a nature girl/guy like me, or an enthusiastic kid, or simply just believe in magical possibilities- you will love this movie! See more Read all reviews
