Please tell me how to express these 2 thoughts??

COuld you please tell me how to properly express these 2 thoughts?

1 The movie is so short that you've only started watching it and there is an hour left, but at the same time, it isn't that short in relation to the screenplay which isn't complex. So an hour and 15 minutes is more than enough to get the whole storyline in.

2 When a movies says there are 20 minutes left, there aren't really 20 minutes left as you have to take into account the credits at the end of the movie.

Thank you
