Increasing resolution to 4k is silly for movies. It may make sense for sports, documentaries, or educational shows where you can show dense (computer-screen-like) data with the picture. This same discussion comes up a lot in games, but the experience there is that increasing resolution just shows that you're using shitty digital puppets with bad acting/writing. Increasing pixel-throughput for post-processing or faking an "analog" look can lead to more creativity, though.
