On my first play through mgs4 I watched all the cut-scenes and enjoyed them. I played the game at it's pace and was sucked into the storyline. On my second play through I skipped through alot of the long monologueing cause I knew what they were going to say.
So yeah, long cut-scenes are grand as long as they're skippable. If it's a boring cut-scene that I can't skip and I'm desperatly trying to get to the gameplay to see if the game is worth playing I'd probably change the channel. Assassin's creed was notoriously bad for this, I'd be sitting there listening to the old beardy guy go on and on with nothing I can do to shut him up. I'd change the channel to watch some tv, come back and he's still talking!
