Why wont it play DVD's?

[Dynomite]

This is my first macbook, and I felt like watching borat but when I put the dvd in, the little disk image goes on my desktop but I can't play it. When I open the disk icon it goes to folder called VIDEO_TS inside is a bunch of images and other stuff... Sounds nooby but how do I watch movies on this thing....

EDIT: I had to go into VLC manually and go to open disk.. Why cant I just click on the DVD and click play?

set it to autoplay the dvd or open dvdplayer.app manually.

As posted before open DVD Player.

Then, if you wish for DVDs to play when you insert them, go; System Preferences > CDs & DVDs > "When you insert a video DVD"
