One of the comments mentioned price, that's the reason I don't see pretty much anything right now. Tickets in my area are $20~$30, so even with one kid a night out is going to cost north of $100. Why go see a movie that might suck in a theater when I can just catch it on a streaming service after a few months? I'll save the theater for something I absolutely must see, which isn't much nowadays

The comments of the article make some good points too. The premise is both more complicated and less interesting than the more we'll received titles, and it just seems much less fleshed out.
