Sky Movies Premier

Sky Movies Premier has been around for a while now but used to be known under a different name. The channel also has a +1 version so that if you have missed the start of the movies you have another chance to watch it an hour later. -----Why would you want it----- If you love seeing the very latest movies first, the this is the channel for you. You will be able to see five first-run films every week, that's 20 premieres each month, one year before they are shown on any other channel, this does exclude any pay per views on sky of course. For 14 hours a day there are movies to suit all tastes and suitable for all ages, with the new titles launching ...  Read the complete review

The Sky Movies channels were reshuffled back in April 2007. They used to have about 10 movie channels and they all had a mixture of movies on the channel, but then Sky decided to change the format and Sky Movies Premier was launched. Sky Movies Premier is on Sky channel 301, Cable channel 401 and Sky HD channel 313. There is also a +1 hour of this channel on Sky channel 302. So what is on the channel and is it any good? The newest films from Sky goes onto this and the same films run all week from Saturday-Friday. In my opinion it is a bit long to have the same films on every day and repeated an hour later, but then again I have an HD box and Sky+ ...  Read the complete review

SKY MOVIES PREMIERE is a movie channel on the Sky Digital satellite system in the UK. It is the channel which shows the latest movies - many of the other Sky Movies channels show older movies.

I've seen all of these films at the cinema, thanks to my Cineworld ...  Read the complete review

Currently the only Widescreen content availalbe through the movie channels is the Sky Movies Widescreen - 1 part time channel. Personally I think this is poor and recently decided to cancel my movie channels until they put more Widescreen output on. BUT Reports have been appearing in various publications that at the end of October Sky1 will start broadcasting in Widescreen and shortly after Sky Movies widescreen will be removed completely and widescreen movies will then be broadcast on all the movie channels. If this is the case then it's about time in my opinion. The movie channels are very good anyway but having a ...  Read the complete review
