Do you want to copy it to your harddrive, or do you want to burn a new DVD from the original?
A good Macintosh DVD website is The Mac DVD Resource

And another note... if you are looking at making copies of movies on DVD, for the most part they will not fit on a DVD-R. Printed DVD's can have two layers, and DVD-R's are limited to one layer (there is a version in development that will change this.. but that is some way off from being a common... or affordable thing).
There are applications that will split the content somewhat intelligently between two disks.

Use DVDBackup (you can find it via the link I posted above). Then, watch the DVD using VLC (get it off of Versiontracker or MacUpdate).
