Some directors go for a look that doesn't translate very well to the "small screen". Some studios go to great lengths to make their releases show the best that the format can offer. It also makes a difference as to what film stocks were used to make the film in the first place. Some movies are grainy: some movies are less so. This could have been the director's intent (some like the look) or due to the quality of the film which was available at the time. Then there's the DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) that has many a videophile hoopin' and hollerin' about that detail that gets removed. If you don't like the look of grain in the movies you watch, DNR creates a look that doesn't offend. But if you'd rather see what was really on those frames, DNR is rather offensive.
Blu-ray will get you closer to the theater in your home than any previous consumer video format. But poor decisions along the way, from the director to the studio, can hinder what the format is capable of delivering.
