Movies4Men is a satellite television film channel in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, available as a free-to-air service on Freesat and Sky Digital. Dolphin Broadcast Services Ltd acquired the daytime matinee movies service from sit-up Ltd, which was re-branded as the 24-hour Movies4Men on February 1, 2006.
The channel is aimed at the middle to old aged male viewer, with a look at the classics in cinema history, focusing mainly on western and war film genres. Movies4Men was joined by its sister channel Movies4Men 2 on October 9, 2006, which transmits other types of cinematic genres. The channels' ratings are comparable with Sky Movies Classics and Sky Movies Drama subscription channels.
