Answer

If your friend is asking you now, then use "I have (already) watched this movie" or "I have (already) seen this movie."  Present perfect for using past events to describe now.

If you explain this to someone else later (ie. the request is in the past), then you use past perfect:

"My friend invited me to watch that movie, but I had already seen it."
