As I read that, you're not actually watching a 'downloaded' movie (that exists as a file on your iPad) but a 'streamed' one, which requires an internet connection to view it.

Some streaming services (such as BBC iPlayer) offer a facility to actually download a file, for viewing later, rather than simply streaming it. However most (including, say, Netflix) don't and you MUST be online in order to watch the video content.

So which service are you using to access your movies?

A bit of googling suggests that you're probably trying to play the video within iTunes, when what you actually need to do is to use your iPad's video-player app or (possibly better) one of the alternatives listed here:
