: 120-130 pages usually equals 90 minutes. But it could differ if the script includes action sequeces, and other situations that may tamper with the tempo of the film.

120-130 pages doesn't mean anything close to 90 minutes. That's about a two hour movie, maybe more. Usually evens out to a page a minute.
