I don't think its unreasonable for a movie to wrap itself up in 100 to 120 minutes. If you go beyond 120 minutes, there better be a good reason.
Disagree. I can name a dozen films that go longer than two hours. Another favorite of mine is Once Upon A Time In America. Absolutely loved it and it was over 3 hours...there are numerous others too.
I just don't see us agreeing on much. Obviously we like different things.

Best movie of the 80s IMO.

I would imagine there are hundreds of movies Baloo loves that are over 120 minutes. I didnt take that as necessarilly being his whole point.
I did however think the movie in question had good reason to be over 120 minutes. To me the story was just as much about Robert Ford as it was Jessie James. Two completely different characters that both of whom were extremly intriguing in different ways. I didnt mind finding out as much detail as the director was willing to give.
No doubt about it the movie tool a long time to wrap up. But I enjoyed the what seemed to be three to four endings.
