Ahh, see some will say it doesn't do much for animated films or films that aren't put out there for stunning visual effects. I say bollocks to that. Not only will the Blu-ray be sharper and more detailed, it is faster which eliminates the stutter motion you get in highly complex scenes. If your tv has true cinema mode (24fps), then the movie will look even better.
Take the movie Kung Fu Panda for example, it's an awesome animated flick on regular DVD, but get the Blu-Ray version and you'll be blown away (if you have a decent tele to watch it on) by the sharpness and smoothness of the motion and details.
If you have a good Plasma tv, then Blu-Ray is absolutely fantastic. Sure it looks good on LCD and LEDLCD tvs, but .. good (see panasonic) plasmas offer true blacks and whites so the hi-def movies look even better. I guess the tv argument is for another thread though.
So a simple answer to the OP. Yes, it's quite a bit better than DVD.
