There are people who can spend 3 hours (and sometimes more) watching a movie with great pleasure. Yes, what can I say, many people set aside a whole day to organize a movie marathon and watch all the “Harry Potters” or the director’s versions of “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit” in one gulp. But nowadays free time is a valuable currency. Not everyone has enough time to spend 2-3 hours on a movie. Therefore, it often happens that a movie stretches out over several days, when a person watches it a little at a time when he has time. But this... does not contribute to immersion. And in general, you can forget “what the movie is about.” But there are films whose timing allows you to fully enjoy a great story in just 90 minutes (and sometimes even less). So for many people the ideal standard is an hour and a half. And this, by the way... is a very difficult task. After all, only a truly talented director can tell an exciting and complete story in such a time. We have put together a small list of one and a half hour and cool films for all tastes and preferences.
