Literally how do long movies feel shorter than short movies

I love a court drama with great dialogue.

However… it was clear the whole movie that the defendant is a horrible person, so I spent a majority of the movie not even wanting the protagonist to win

Objection your Honor! High School debates are as important as a cross examination in a murder case

A remarkable film. Pacing of this film was amazing it did not feel like it was almost three hours wrong. The first half of the film which was outside the court room did a great job setting the facts of the case. Once the facts were set the film then transitioned to the court room and this is where the film took off. James Stewart yet again with another amazing acting performance. He displayed his character personality extremely well. He had some great one liners. Some really funny one liners about “Good ole Johnny”. Truly a remarkable actor. The twist and turn of the plot with the prosecution and defendants constantly outwitting and outsmarting each other was amazing. My main issue with the film is it felt like it just abruptly ended and I didn’t find the ending satisfying or convincing. But other than that I would say this was a good film because of James Stewart and the twists and turns of the legal system. A remarkable film.

The rhythm of the dialogue and the brilliant back and forth between the characters is so engrossing. The film really places the focus on the importance of words and storytelling rather than the common theme of justice, especially in the context of a courtroom drama.
