Its about ~2-3GB for a movie for me. The Quality isnt great but still better than Netflix streams.
I would recommend "spending" about 6 GB on a 1080p x265 encoding of a movie, if you can. The quality is much better, good enough to be viewed up close on a large screen, unless there's a large amount of high frequency detail, like in recent animated or very CGI-heavy movies - or unless it's an older film with strong film grain and/or large mass scenes (think Lawrence of Arabia). Those do benefit from higher bitrates and resolutions, even if your screen isn't 4K.
