$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it... Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.

Renting a DvD / Blueray was like 7$, going to the movies is 10-15$, why TF is this platform so expensive??
It's pre release. You can often get streaming copies prior to the street date, but it's generally quite expensive.
It’s not the platform. The movie is that much on them all. In a few months it will drop to $6 - 7 for rental.
Renting a DVD or video game was like $3 at its peak here. There was a video store that had older movies that they would let you rent 5 movies for 5 nights for 5 dollars.
It's for people who don't want to wait a few more months to pay $5.99 instead.
corporate greed.
