How can I watch a movie or TV show?


If you're looking to watch a title you've found on IMDb, there are a few options you may have to do so based on the availability of the title.

We list every movie and show we are aware of that meet our criteria for inclusion, whether or not they are available on video or ever have been. In some cases, there are no known copies available in digital or physical form. 

To learn more about watching Trailers, Clips, Featurettes, and IMDb Originals, please see the IMDb Video FAQs.

Let's dive into your options:


Looking to stream, rent or buy a digital copy?

We provide links to the Prime Video catalog and other streaming providers when available as a service to our visitors. 

All transactions and/or subscriptions are handled directly by each streaming provider, not by IMDb.com. To get started, search for the movie or show on IMDb and below the poster, we’ll display the options available. 

Amazon purchase option

Depending on the title, you might be able to stream it with a new/existing subscription, rent it, or purchase it. Just look for the “Watch" button, with pricing shown where applicable.


Looking for the DVD or Blu-Ray?

IMDb is part of the Amazon.com group of companies, and we provide links to the Amazon catalog when available as a service to our visitors. All sales are handled directly by Amazon.com. To purchase a DVD or Blu-Ray copy, look for the links which direct you to Amazon.com to purchase a physical copy.
