immersion in a movie- does this happen with DVD?

Went to see Millions yesterday, an unabashedly emotional movie. Afterwards, my friend said something like, I'm starting to understand why you go to so many movies. She said that she completely lost herself during this movie and only at the end started to remember where she was, and that during the movie, all the problems of her life essentially disappeared. In a nutshell, that is quite common and one of the things I love about going to a movie, it is often a truly immersive experience. This simply does not happen to me when watching DVDs at home. But my video system is low end. I wonder if the people here, who seem to mostly watch DVDs, actually experience this and, if so, what kind of video equipment is necessary to get there.
