Movies by definition are short( one and a half hours to more than 2 hours) and by design have a conclusion.
The miniseries is made in installments of about one hour each and go for 10 to 100 episodes.Myself, I prefer a movie that comes to some conclusion. If a miniseries ( like breaking bad) is well written it can survive a long run, but some others seem to struggle to keep the audiences' interest going.The longer a series goes, the better the character development and the story becomes deeper and more defined.
Are there any short series that get it over with in less than 10 episodes?

in a way that a movie is unable to do. That's what I loved about Breaking Bad.
One and Three are independent of one another have a beginning, middle and end
and are top rate mini series. Wish I could say the same for Two.

it kinda had to come to a conclusion.
There are now numerous "One crime-One season" dramas. The Killing comes to mind tho they cheated on Season 1. The American Crime series is similar.
American Horror Story, one season, one genre explored. Each season tho, worst than the previous (for the most part)
The Bodyguard. An excellent example of a one season series brought to a fantastic conclusion in the last episode.

I like it. Thanks for the tips.
I thought it was way too formulaic, and I liked the duo of Tom Berenger and Mimi Rogers better.

seriously suspenseful scenes tho Victor. It may have been formulaic but it was quite well done, of course IMHO, YMMV, ibid, et al, in vino veritas, etc..

100 episode miniseries? I don't know of even one.
Unless your calling a "series" that lasts years like Game of Thrones etc. But even that only had 73.

The only high number of episodes that I watched was "breaking bad" and that was 60 or 70.
Gotcha. I watched that after I refuse to watch AMC/commercials. I was losing interests the last many episodes. Not the case with better call Saul. I had a few issues with BB from the beginning but there was enough good to watch it until late in the series.
