if you are writing the full movie roughly 90 -125 pgs. then its best to make act 1 and act 3 the same length and make act 2 the longest,a good amount would be 30 for act 1, 60 for act 2, 30 for act 3. make sure that you have a great "call to adventure" toward the end of act 1, a point of no return in act 2 where the protagonist has something bad happen to someone close to him or someone(s),they must then begin the readyness to prepare, then in in act 3 it will be the climax,where evil is confronted or defeated...and from there on it will be the return to the normal world...the protagonist doesnt have to live but if they die it has to be for the better of the cause....those are some quick pointers
