understanding Play movies

[bob60626]

I found Jurassic Park on the market. I have a long train trip tomorrow and figured JP and some tall boys would make for a fine trip!
I bought the movie and re-enabled the app. On the last page when buying it said I could watch it without a connection. It doesn't work though! I don't want to stream a two hour movie in an area that will likely have bad reception. Any ideas?

On your device open the Movies &TV app -> select the movie, then on the cover photo or what ever there is a small push pin icon, touch that and it will ask you if you want to download for off line play.

Never mind, I didn't download it after I bought it.

Make sure that you have enough internal memory to download the movie for offline viewing. (Usually around 300 to 500 MB) It does work really well. I've downloaded a few movies and watched them offline with now issues.
