Which movie do you want? Depending on what platform offers it (or if it is aired on live television), you may be able to record it or download it for offline use with a streaming service.

To download a movie without paying is not legal.

There's no easy way to record stuff from a FireStick. It only outputs via HDMI video and there are no consumer recorders that can record from HDMI. Plus HDMI is copy-protected.

Firestick is a streaming device. Whatever movie you are wanting is not “on firestick” and can’t be copied. You would be streaming it from whatever streaming service it’s on. You might be able to record it while you stream it but as previous responses have indicated, not easily done.
