What's important is not the freq, but rather the interpolation between frames.

Film is native at 24fps.
- If you have 240hz but no interpolation, the screen displays 10 frames of the same film frame.
- If you have 120hz but no interpolation, the screen displays 5 frames of the same film frame.
(what sucks is old school 60hz, as it chops the film at 2.5 frames)

Anyway, what is important, for motion, is how the processor figures out what the newly created (interpolated) display frames look like.

So far I'm liking Sony and Samsung.

Color depth is another big player for realistic image. The Sony XBR9 series for example has great backlighting spectrum.
