Don't care. A movie should be as long as it needs to be. That said, I'd rather err on the side of longer. Give scenes room to breath. Don't try to rush things.

An example is the new How to Train a Dragon. It's a scene for scene remake, that's nearly 30 min longer. And I found it surprisingly more effecting. I actually cried, which never happened with the original.
