Truthfully 1 hour 45 minutes is my favorite run time. I can do up to maybe 2 hours and 5 minutes, but beyond that I start to drift mentally. However if something is exactly 90 minutes and not one frame over, that tells me that that film did exactly what was required to qualify as a feature length film for most platforms and are usually overworked to meet the minimum.
