HEREHERE Vincent Wong, good point! "Movie look, versus Film look!"
That is exactly what most digital filmmakers want. Semantics or not, it is confusing to film look footage. You just want it too look like a movie! I guess it's just that film is still the standard audiences are used to.
But with 4k projectors coming soon, I bet we'll see some movies shooting 60p for artistic choice. I remember one famous director saying something to that effect.
Film does look like film, but digital can look like anything from total crap, to fantastic depending on who's behind the cam. But take Roger & me, shot on 35mm, and looks like ass. It's all talent. Fortunate for those who have it, and unfortunate for those who don't.
As far as tools, any 35mm adapter will help, but you need skill to make it look good. Focus is harder, etc. First try getting it right with your cam, then move on to more exotic solutions.
