Do go over the steps listed at

If you can't stream or watch movies or TV shows from the Apple TV app, iTunes Store, or third-party apps - Apple Support

see if there are additional things to do.

Do you get any (error) messages when trying to play these movies?


If it happens with a particular title, then that source file may be the issue. But if it happens for all movies, then you have to further examine the network connectivity.

Try on another network (friend, neighbor, store).

Try on another device, on your own home network.
