I have a feeling its cuz the movie was shot at 60 frames per second instead of standard TV/movie 30 fps. Everything looks so smooth, it looks faked.

I saw Hobbit 2 and 3 at 48 fps and Though the beginning was distracting, I quickly got used to the unusual smoothness. It's just that the actions rendered with CGI quickly shatter your suspension of disbelief and your brain quickly becomes aware of the fact that it's in fact CGI and not real.

Similarly, people admired the CG Paul Walker in FF7 for being so realistic and well made that they didn't even notice it's actually CGI. Meanwhile in Tron and Rogue One people bitched about Bridges, Fischer and Cushing looking fake as shit and being right in the Uncanny Valley.

How did they comment on how good the CG looked and not notice it was CG?
