Question regarding "stale" film print/look

I had a question, most Pakistani movies have this "stale" look. In this case, this movie was shot in year 2002 on 35mm film stock. Do you think they used expired film stock? Please click below to view the 20 seconds sample from a movie.

 

Also, the focus is not sharp. Is that lense related issue?

What makes some American Hollywood movies "stale looking"?

 

I noticed "Dont Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead" looks really washed out and like crap, like all the colors are faded.

 

Also, the print for the original "Die Hard" looks rough as well as "Ghostbusters". I mean Die hard and "Babysitter" arent even that old, what's up with that?
