It looks bad. But there's no accounting for taste.

This is not an objective quality, and yet most people get that it's a disappointing picture quality.

Directors and producers have put lots of effort into getting movies to exude an impression of good lighting, and visual imerssion, to aid in forgetting that the motion picture's anything but a window into another reality, as close to sonder as possible.

Flicker and motion artifacts leap out in the mind, distracting some (many) from the setting of the movie. It's an uncanny valley thing, and once you spot it, the movie becomes something of a cartoon, and a lesser representation of captured photography.
