Shortie Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I have watched movies that have been just over and hour long and movies that are just over 3 hours. I feel it depends on the kind of movie and how interesting the storyline is, for something that isn't very interesting but ends up being repetitive just to make the hours of the movie longer are movies I hate and can't sit and watch until the end. I would say an hour and a half to two hours is an ideal length for a movie. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I would've chosen as well - one and a half to two hours Shortie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennysplash Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 An less than 2 hours at most. If it is not a series I am probably not spending hours watching how it plays out. The shorter the length the better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lens Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 An hour and a half to two hours is definitely the sweet spot for me too. Any longer and it starts to drag for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
