You should download and install Kodi, a free program, to watch movies on your computer for free. Yes, there’s a learning curve, but once learned you’re good to go. Sometimes the movies are cams of a movie at a theater and sometimes they are very watchable. You just have to pick and choose which ones to watch or wait for a better recording.

Great site! Thanks!
