Anything wrong with this?

I was watching this video comparing the Red One with a Panavision film camera. Of course the Panavision is one of the big boys, used in most hollywood movies, but still... there's something wrong with this side by side comparison. It almost looks like the Red footage is blurry and out of focus and the Panavision has a sharpness filter or something. What do you guys think?

Here's the video:

"simulation"
 
This is clearly just a test video of a "film look" effect. And not a very good one.

First red flag is it compares to a panavision camera body, with no mention of a film stock...
 
The Panavision looks worse because of the sharpness. I think it's too sharp and you can see a lot of detail that is unflattering on the talent's faces. I don't know what they did in post if anything. We need more information.
