The Wolf of Wall Street

Seven Samurai
Directed by Japan's premier director Akira Kurosawa in 1954, this film is an epic film, the most invested film in Japan that year, and the length of the film is as high as 207 minutes. In 1856, a Japanese village received frequent attacks from thieves and murderers, so they decided to hire seven samurai to protect the village, and the film revolves around the story of what happens between the seven samurai and the villagers.
"Gone with the Wind"
Considering that "Gone with the Wind" was released in 1939 and has been released for nearly four hours, it is still an incredible thing, this film was the longest and most expensive film at that time, and even now, the length of the film can still be ranked. To this day, this film is still regarded as a classic by countless fans. The film stars Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable.
The Lord of the Rings: The King Is Invincible
As the last film in the "Lord of the Rings" series, the film is 201 minutes long, and in fact, fans who have seen it will only feel that this time is not enough, or even longer. And the average length of the Lord of the Rings trilogy is more than three hours, and if you want to watch it in one breath, it can be really a big challenge. And The Lord of the Rings: Invincible even has an extended version, with an additional fifty minutes added to the extended version.
Titanic
"Titanic" has undergone numerous restoration re-screenings, which is enough to illustrate the popularity of this film. The 1997 catastrophic romance film by James Cameron is three hours long, and what is even more surprising is that the film depicts the actual events in which the Titanic sinks the same time as depicted in the film: 2 hours and 40 minutes. The love story of Jack and Ross may still be brought up many years later.
The Irishman
Another feature-length film directed by Martin Scorsese, an uncensored version of the film that lasts three and a half hours, is also the ninth collaboration between Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro, and the first collaboration with Al Pacino (there should be a feeling of seeing each other and hating each other). Regrettably, as another Olympic work of Martin Scorsese, it was not fulfilled in the end.
Avengers: Endgame
2019's "Avengers: Endgame" also reached 181 minutes long, the longest in the Marvel movie, this movie also announces the end of the Marvel era as we know it, although the assembly of Captain America, our superheroes once again united against Thanos, with the fall of Iron Man, we still have difficulty saying goodbye to these heroes, it seems that the three-hour film is still too short.
The Godfather 2
Following the success of 1972's The Godfather, The Godfather 2 was brought to the big screen two years later, continuing to be directed by Francis Ford Coppola and running for 3 hours and 22 minutes. As a sequel to The Godfather, the film was still a huge success, and Al Pacino continued to present Oscar-level films in this sequel, as well as Robert De Niro.
Schindler's List
A film that can rank in the top ten or more on any one film list, the film was directed by Steven Spielberg and released in 1993 with a length of 195 minutes starring Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley, and Ralph Fines. The film's winning of that year's Oscar for Best Picture and the gift of Steven Spielberg with an Oscar for Best Director are enough to illustrate the greatness of the film.
