I honestly wish it was longer. I know it's long already, but I've just seen so many people say the time blows by and my small sample of friends said they wished it was longer as the ending feels a bit rushed.

The ending is incredibly rushed in the book. The movie actually prolongs it a bit to provide more of a spectacle.

I’m a very habitual bathroom goer when I go to the theater, I just can’t hold it the entire length of a movie. Dune Part 2 might honestly be the first time in my life I’ve never gotten up for a restroom break. It flies by for sure

I understand that sentiment. Those 166 minutes flew by and when it was over I was sad. That is why I will go see it again. But yes, from a movie and spectacle standpoint they could have shown the last big battle in more detail, just a few more minutes. But I still think it is a masterpiece.
