Why is 60fps a big deal for games?

My background is in telecommunications (the technical side of video production), so I know that 30fps is (or was?) considered the standard for a lot of video. TV and movies don’t seem choppy when I watch them, so why does doubling the frame rate seem to matter so much when it comes to games? Reviewers mention it constantly, and I don’t understand why.

It looks more fluid and pleasing to the eye

Flumsy ,

And just to add to the others pount, yesterday my monitor was accidentally set to 50hz and I immidiazely noticed the difference to 60hz. Because fast movements arent blurred (they arent supposed to be), they look choppy.
