That’s scrum. One of the defining features of scrum is timeboxing meetings. Daily standups are 15 minutes. A two week review should be two hours. Ditto for retrospectives and sprint planning.
A seven hour meeting means the scrum master wasn’t doing their job.
At my last job I had to endure 2-hour daily standups involving 120 people. Yes, I know that that's as far from actual agile as you can possibly get -- we still called it "agile".
