Default Film Grain

So I'm playing through Mass Effect 2 - and started wondering "What exactly is the benefit to film grain being on"?

I started looking around the interwebs, and it seems 90% of gamers hate film grain in a game (Not just ME2), and think it lessens the HD quality.

Personally, I can't make up my mind. I figure there HAS to be some type of pro for film grain in a video game, I just can't figure it out. At what point does film grain stop benefiting visual quality, and start impeding it, and making it look staticy.
