    Rar files should automatically unrar in numerical order - just click on the first one and a box should pop up,just choose "extract to" and extract the movie to your folder of choice.
    if for some reason they do not unrar properly, it is nearly always the problem of corruption in the files when you were downloading the movie.
    if you get this message of corrupt file, you can possibly re-download that particular part of the file instead of the whole thing again.
    personally if i receive a corrupt file whilst trying to open a movie, i normally nuke the whole package and re-download from another source.
