We don't watch films, we watch animations, run by the computer. Which is how our graphics options affect the way hte cinematics look the same way they affect the rest of the game world. 
The cinematics simply take place in small levels which cannot be accessed by us directly. They are on our computers though, so if someone programmed a utility to decompile and look at maps (whch I'm pretty sure is against the T&C), we could take a look at the altered Kalt courtyard, the barge, Merv's hotel room, etc.
