PURPOSE: A hard-coated antiglare film, and a polarizing plate and an image display including the same are provided to increase visibility without deteriorating the properties of image displays such as LCDs with increased definition and contrast. CONSTITUTION: A hard-coated antiglare film has a haze value in the range of 4 to 25%. The haze value is more preferably in the range of 5 to 15% and further preferably in the range of 5 to 10%. In order to obtain a haze value in the aforementioned range, it is preferable that the fine particles and the material for forming a hard-coating layer be selected so that the difference in refractive index between the fine particles and the material for forming a hard-coating layer is in the range of 0.01 to 0.04. A haze value in the aforementioned range allows a clear image to be obtained and can improve the contrast in a dark place. When the haze value is excessively low, a failure due to glare tends to occur.
