You’re in the Movies is a party video game developed by Relentless Software and published by Codemasters, released in 2008 exclusively for Xbox 360. The game utilizes the Xbox Live Vision camera to record players performing a variety of humorous mini-games, which are then edited into short, themed movie clips.

Players are prompted to perform specific actions, such as striking poses or acting out scenes, which are captured by the camera and integrated into pre-made movie templates. The resulting videos can be shared with friends or saved for later viewing. The game supports up to four players, encouraging group play and creativity.

The Xbox 360 version is notable for its use of live-action video and user participation, offering a unique blend of gameplay and personalized movie creation. Its mini-games are simple and designed for casual entertainment, focusing on fun rather than complex mechanics.

Reception was mixed; while praised for originality and party appeal, the game was also criticized for limited content and repetitive tasks. Nevertheless, it remains a distinctive title in the realm of interactive party games.
