28 Days later PQ - Please explain

[#Darren]

I don't own 28 Days Later on Blu ray but have read the many negative comments about how bad it looks, hardly worth upgrading from the DVD etc..

Now I know it was shot in standard def, BUT it was projected in theatres on giant screens... so how come no one said it looked awful in the theatres? And surely it benefited SOMEWHAT from the higher bandwidth of Blu ray ? Surely Blu ray gives us closer to the cinema look than the DVD release did?
