15 Long Movies That Feel Short According to MovieWeb

"It raises eyebrows anytime a film clocks in at two and a half, three, or even four hours long. It can be extremely challenging to hold the audience's attention for even two hours, keep the plot tight and coherent, and maintain satisfying pacing. Yet longer films provide opportunities for many filmmakers to delve deeper into main characters and peripheral characters, cover multiple themes, and experiment with filmmaking techniques. A longer runtime usually means a more expensive movie that production companies are averse to taking the risk for; with so many great films clocking in on the longer side, perhaps it can show these companies that there's an appetite for even longer long-form entertainment. Because when a film is in great hands and has a dynamic, talented cast on the camera, there's nothing better than basking in that cinematic experience for as long as possible. Here are 15 long movies that feel short that you should check out." - movieweb.com
