Android Movies is now available to download and use in the UK. The application is available to download free from the Android Market and enables you to rent Hollywood movies on your smartphone.

The movies themselves start at £2.49 for older movies and £3.49 for the latest Hollywood releases. Current movies available include Fast Five, Senna and The Green Lantern.

Once you've purchased a movie you have up to 30 days to watch it and once you've begun watching it you have 24 hours to view it as many times as you want.

Selected movies can output to a HDMI cable enabling you to display the movies on your HDTV, but we suspect a lot of people will be using this service when on the move.

You can download movies from the Android Market right now by clicking here.
