Waited until after 2pm (I didn't really buy this one as otherwise it shouldn't be displayed as selectable, but thought I'd eliminate it anyway), same result. In fact every other programme/movie seems to work as it should, except for this one movie. As a last resort I used the search feature to look for it and, susprisingly, that worked. However, the main screen and guide links don't work, so whichever way you cut it someone as Sky has screwed up here. The biggest irony is that this is a Sky channel/service, and yet the guy next door with Virgin Media has had no such issues. They're starting to become more attractive by the week now.
@DarthPaulS I didn't expect it to make any difference either but as the movie is showing perfectly well on my system it was the only other thing I could think of. Why, in your case, it should work on a voice search but not when selected from your home page is baffling to say the least.

@Fothergill1 I never said voice search. Search... as in menu search. It's most likely a broken link from the main menus/pages. I was a programmer for over 20 years in a former working life - it happens. But for this to happen on Sky's main page for the week's big movie release... no words needed really.

However you watch it, it's a fun movie. I saw it a few months ago and enjoyed it immensely - very good Dolby Vision grade and Atmos mix if you can get them...

Or you could watch it via Paramount+
I don't have Sky Cinema but I do have Paramount+ from Sky VIP.
