buy yes, I have noticed the same thing. When I was wisiting my parents for the holidays I noticed that they bought a new 4K tv. Everything looked like crap, mostly to some motion smoothing effect. I did some setup on the TV and got it to look ok, but my parents hated it  they wanted it to look the way it dodo when the bought it who am I to argue, so I unfixed it.

Anyway, when I was doing the setup I thought would look nice I used the taxi driver. Later that evening I watched on my old 720p sony LCD, which has probably never been setup and it looked great! and who say sony can`t do colors

That was discussed just a few weeks ago to some length here in the forum:

The outcome: turn all "features" off.

Funnily my s/o's sister said she thinks it looks way better with the sharpening, saturation and motion smoothing cranked up. Seems the "film look" will probably die out in a few generations.

A friend of mine who bought a 4K TV said to me, "I brought this one because it has the fastest refresh rate," the guy in the shop had told him that meant it was the best... He was suckered in.

Everything looks shit, bar sports... I switched it off during a film and he didn't like it and switched it back on.

Try the new LG OLEDs, so fuckin great, selling my Pioneer Plasma now. The only thing that's a little bit worse is motion (judder), because it's just so much sharper and you notice every flaw more easily.
