When CGI was introduced, film critics said they would never watch it, because the acting wasn't real.

I know I'm likely the minority here, but I really dislike heavy use CGI films, like a LOT.

Same here. And it's starting to look worse and worse over time. Before CGI was used to enhance a scene. Now no one shoots a scene in camera and adds CGI later (think Transformers / Jurassic Park), the whole scene is just CGI and it looks like crap.

I would wager you mostly dislike bad CGI – that's any CGI you actively notice being CGI – like most of us do. Of course, the disdain varies, but I have yet to meet someone who thought CGI was cool, because it was noticeable.
