What kind of movies do you want to play? Right now I'm having decent luck with Xine, less so with others. I hate Xine's interface, but it's a popular style even if I hate it, so someone must like the style.

Xine [xine.sourceforge.net] and Mplayer [mplayerhq.hu] are both very good and robust in what they can play -- Mplayer could play just about anything, avi, quicktime, wmp, mpg, you name it.
