Still no confirmation from Warner Bros., but both AMC and Regal list the film's running time at 2 hours, 1 minute. That's less than two hours of actual film when you cut out the credits.

ETA:

It's officially listed at 121 minutes in length.

Sweet. These films can be a tad long anyway.

I doubt that article's authenticity

Every person who attended the test screening of Justice League said it was under 2 1/2 hours in length.

That's actually encouraging. A lot of movies north of two hours can have a good bit of stuff cut.

Wouldn't they have mentioned if it was under two hours long?

They sure as hell didn't mention anything about it being 3 hours long.

Yeah I’m more inclined to believe it’s going to be pushing 3 hours rather than barely eclipsing 2

Zack Snyder himself came out in March and said the rumor of a 3-hour runtime is nothing but bunk. Granted there have been extensive reshoots with Whedon at the helm, but the test screenings seem to confirm a 2-hourish runtime.

Scott Mendelson at Forbes making the case for shorter superhero movies:

'Justice League's Running Time Is The Least Of Its Problems

quote:

But it amuses me that we’re at this point. Nine years after ten years after Spider-Man 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, we are so used to very long (and sometimes arguably overlong) would-be blockbusters that a movie like Justice League running just over two hours is cause for alarm. That’s just over/under the running times for (offhand) Batman, Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Star Wars and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part II is now seen as cause for alarm. That last example is telling, as Harry Potter 7.2 was indeed the finale to an eight-movie saga that was more-or-less strictly business. It is entirely possible that Justice League is more concerned about wrapping things up than reminiscing or setting up new story threads.

Conversely, as much as I enjoyed much of Walt Disney's Thor: Ragnarok, it is a prime example of a 105-minute caper stretched to 130 minutes seemingly due to expectations of how long these films should be. And I don’t know of anyone who thinks that Superman Returns or Paramount/Viacom Inc.'s Transformers sequels earned their bloated runtimes. Heck, if you cut out the prologue that everyone skips and go to the bathroom during the whole “Peter discovers his dad’s big secret” sequence, Sony's Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a lean/mean two-hour Peter Parker movie. The Avengers, which runs 143 minutes counting that rather terrible 12-minute pre-title sequence that probably gets skipped on Blu-Ray more often than the opening chapter of Finding Nemo. And, miracles of miracles, Fox's 96-minute (plus credits) X-Men worked out just fine.
