"Bigger than life" means something or someone who stands out in some big way. You will usually hear this used to mean someone or something either extremely famous or extremely flamboyant.
Or better:
'Bigger than life' is an expression used in relation to cinematic narrative. It means that a story takes its premise from 'real' life like in 'It's a wonderful Life' where a young businessman is so fed up with life that he wants to commit suicide. The solution of the story is 'bigger than life': an angel comes down from heaven and shows the businessman how sad life in his little town would have been if he hadn't existed. So 'bigger than life' means that a narration is truthful in a moral or emotional way but not necessarily realistic.
