One way would be donwloading mplayer for OS X here:

http://mplayerosx.sourceforge.net/

It's a build with a GUI frontend, but it's got the CLI app hidden inside.

Mac application bundles are really folders, so you can use a shell to
look inside, for example:

$ cd /Applications/MPlayer OS X
2.app/Contents/Resources/mplayer.app/Contents/MacOS
$ ls
mplayer
$ ./mplayer -h
./mplayer
MPlayer dev-CVS-0500May-17:40-3.3 (C) 2000-2005 MPlayer Team
AltiVec found
CPU: PowerPC

Usage:   mplayer [options] [url|path/]filename

Basic options: (complete list in the man page)
[etc...]
