What is the listed running time of the 1970 M*A*S*H film?

The listed running time of the 1970 M*A*S*H film is 116 minutes.

That places Robert Altman’s satirical war comedy at just under two hours. The film was released by 20th Century Fox and adapts Richard Hooker’s 1968 novel, MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors.

Its brisk length supports an episodic structure built from operating-room emergencies, camp pranks, romances, and clashes with military authority. Rather than following one tightly constructed mission, the movie moves through the daily chaos of the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital.

Viewers sometimes encounter different durations in listings because runtimes can vary by print, restoration, broadcast edit, or home-video presentation. For the film’s standard encyclopedia listing, however, 116 minutes is the canonical answer—not 135, 124, or 102 minutes.
