Almost all movies are still filmed at 24fps.
The thing is, movies aren't shown at 24fps - they actually flash each frame on and off a few times to reduce flicker.
It used to be done with a multiple bladed shutter on film projectors, but I believe digital projectors and TVs can do the same thing (on the TV if you turn off that awful motion interpolation that they all have turned on by default for some reason).
But one thing movies don't typically have is a very fast moving mouse pointer on the screen all the time... The mouse, and fast scrolls on web pages and stuff will likely have issues at 30Hz.
