I cringe every time I got in to Best Buy and see them displaying movies this way. Luckily, every TV that I've seen with 120 and 240 has an option to turn it off. So if you do get one, turn it off for movies and TV shows, turn it on for video games and sports.

The races/chases of the last one reminded me too much of Need For Speed games. Hopefully they use less CGI scenery in the next one.

that has been my feeling on a LOT of movies though. Less CGI, more real please! I mean, CGI is great where it makes sense.... but if it is doable with real sets and props, I prefer that look to a CGI scene that I can easily spot. Although, CGI is getting harder to spot...

If its a few seconds of a CGI effect thats too expensive or complex to duplicate, I'm fine with it because it enhances the movie. But creating an underground tunnel to race through? No thanks.
