The OP makes a good point. Even if a Mass is sloppily done, it is still valid and licit given the right conditions.
If the sloppiness is habitual and not a one-time thing, this would be a grave sin.

Yes, I think you're right, but notice that I said valid and licit given the right conditions. And it would depend of what constitutes "sloppy." I don't have any interest in getting into the minute details of what that might be. If you'd like to do so, go ahead.

I once knew an Indult priest (not an FSSP) who sped thru Mass so quickly that you literally might miss the Elevation of the Sacred Host if you blinked. It was so disconcerting and so fundamentally disturbing. There was not a second - not even one second - to adore Our Lord at the elevation.

Then he sped thru the Leonine prayers at the end of Mass so fast the faithful couldn't even keep up, and he would start the next Hail Mary before they were done reciting the response part.

I wanted to say something to him after, but I didn't. I regret that now. He had a very badly ingrained habit.

The first time i went to a mass by fr. Asher i thought to myself, "this CAN'T be reverent."  Reminded me of fr. Pazat (who i believe left the clerical state) who heaved deep sighs before each sentence in the mass.  
20 min is NOT enough tome to say a reverent mass.
Fr. Pazat is one of the Priests at Our Lady of Sorrows in Phx. Az.

This talk of "Speed Masses" has me wondering, how long (roughly) should a Mass be?
