I don't see how it can be visually different, since our feeble poorly designed human eyes are closer to 15-20Hz refresh ratio, especially at the average age of this group

You can tell during fast action, which is not unusual in action movies and sports. You can also pick it up during normal viewing occasionally.

Another thing is that if/when you watch various types of stuff, there can be a problem with the original frame rate. I guess film is usually shot at 24 frames per second and other stuff (not film?) is show at 30fps. Trying to get 24fps to play over a 60fps TV creates issues, but 120 is an even multiple of both 24 and 30, so it solves the "problem".

I've also seen issues playing computer games on LCD monitors with fast action. That's, I believe, the same sort of issues that you can see on a 60Hz LCD TV.
