    You don't "play" torrent files. There are simply files that tell a Bittorrent client where to download whatever the file is. The idea is that you open these .torrent files with your bittorrent client and wait for them to download the file.

    Read the first two sections of this for some general info on Bittorrent and using it:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bittorrent

    That said, if these movies you are trying to download are copyrighted material please note we will not be able to help you any more than what I've just said.

    You would need to install the latest video codecs for whichever video software you currently running on your system
