Killers of the Flower Moon (2023), Martin Scorsese's feature film, runs 206 minutes, or 3 hours 26 minutes. It has no mid-credits or post-credits scene, and the same theatrical cut later reached digital stores, Apple TV+, and Criterion disc.
The length affects planning more than story comprehension. Odeon lists the official runtime at 206 minutes, so a theatrical visit takes over 3.5 hours with trailers Odeon runtime guide. That makes start time, travel, and seating choices matter.

How long should you plan for?
The 206-minute figure is the full running time, including credits. Collider places it as Scorsese's second-longest feature, behind The Irishman at 209 minutes and ahead of The Wolf of Wall Street at 180 minutes.
For theaters, do not plan for exactly 3 hours 26 minutes. Trailers and advertisements extend the visit past 3.5 hours. An evening show can therefore end near midnight.
- Choose a matinee if a late finish affects sleep, childcare, or transit.
- Use the restroom before the feature starts.
- Pick an aisle seat if you may need a brief break.
Do you need to stay through the credits?
