TV series have spoiled me with an actual storyline. Movies just seem to cram as much as they can into such little time that most of them just seem lacking to me now.

Oh yes, I noticed this recently with Andor. Watched both seasons and then Rogue One, the film felt rushed. On the other hand I also recently rewatched the Matrix films and it's surprising how little happens especially in the first film. Maybe film is just not the right medium for long complex stories.

TBF if you can get the director's cut or extend version of almost any movie, it gets better.

And it really depends on the story being told.
