35mm film prints are not that sharp.  They are generations down from the original negative.  A local art theater had a presentation when they switched to digital projection.  They screened 35mm prints versus their DCP restorations and the DCPs were quite amazing and clearly sharper.  Too sharp actually.  You could see a lot of flaws in the image that were never meant to be seen.  The Ghostbusters 4k remastered version was super grainy.  I still loved it.
