Motion Smoothing - Soap Opera Effect on 4K+ Streaming Stick

I have a 4k tv and my cousin has a 4k tv. My tv don't look like his when it comes to that motion. My tv looks like I'm still watching 10801p or something. I don't see anywhere on my tv or streaming apps where I can fix the resolution so I get the real 4k look
