Bob can't feel his leg at the 45th minute. The movie is 2 hours long.


It felt like it dragged on. Had it been 90 minutes long or so, with some tight editing, it would have been a much better film

Probably could have lost a bit, but I found a lot of the lingering shots to ratchet up the tension, not keep it down. Maybe not 90, but...sure, it could have lost 5-10 minutes without losing much in terms of tone and result.
