Still not enough information. What kind of connection are you looking for? Where are the movies going to be played from? Your computer, a dvd player? Will the monitor act as a TV AND your computer monitor? How big were you looking to go?

And how much are you willing to spend?

I didn't know that i can connect a computer monitor to a dvd player, however, i'd prefer a tv set for this. It's only for playing the movies from my computer.

I'd like to get the best for max 400USD. (cheaper will be better)

I like the 24" Dell monitors

Or, for a bit more money, you can get a 24" with HDMI, component, DVI, etc.

I am going to suggest you go with a Samsung. They are incredible monitors, look excellent, and usually have MIB's at newegg.

There are many more with different features available, but that one has a very good contrast ratio and a 2ms response time.
