I use Handbrake. Earlier versions of Handbrake required the VLC app to handle DRM, but I think the newer version is good without it. I do still have VLC and use it quite a bit on my rMBP, so for me it's a moot point. There are commercial options, but Handbrake works fine for me. Handbrake also has a user forum where you can get help with particularly cantankerous movie files. Over all, an excellent option.
