Simple, is there any way to watch a movie on my pc monitor at 120hz , like a SmartTv?

I know it's not actual 120hz and it's some sort of interpolation and stuff...I just want to watch movie like an HDTV, Can i?

As far as I know, there aren't any PC monitors that do frame interpolation like some HDTV models can.
Most monitors are only 60Hz as well.

However, there is an alternative that I myself use with my 120Hz monitor.
That is using a program called "Smooth Video Project". It requires a LOT of processing power to do the more advanced frame interpolation to 60Hz, and even more for 120Hz. (Assuming 1080p video) But if you have the CPU power, it works great.
