Movie duration refers to the total length of a film, typically measured in minutes. It indicates how long the audience will be engaged with the story, characters, and visuals. Most feature films range from about 90 to 180 minutes, although some can be shorter or longer. The duration can affect the pacing and storytelling style of a movie. For instance, a documentary may have a different duration compared to a blockbuster action film. Filmmakers often consider audience attention spans and the complexity of the narrative when deciding on the final length of a movie.
