The size of uncompressed audio WAV/PCM is

(Bitdepth/8) x (num_channels) x (samplerate) x (duration_in_seconds)

Compressed with FLAC you can obtain sizes around 50%

For Road to Perdition (117 m. = 7020 sec.)
Typical values: 16 bitdepth = 2 bytes, 5.1 channels and 48000 Hz
The uncompressed size can be 3.8 GB then the FLAC compression is around 40%
