It varies and depends on the film itself. Some films are technically (as in cinematography) wonderful, but bare bones in other ways. Some have great characters through a simple story. Others have amazing worlds, and others raise large questions to make you think or feel.
If a work is strong enough in a single aspect I am willing to forgive weaknesses in others.
We all see a work through our own eyes with our own preferences and values so I think often these debates devolve into relativism.
