The bokeh is very harsh.

That is, it consists of largish disks of light, with hard edges, slightly brighter than the middle. That gives a very busy, edgy look to the background, rather than the soft out of focusness of good bokeh.

To my eye, as well, it detracts from the overall mood of the image.

Great bokeh renders bright spots like an Airy Disk, brightest in the middle and declining with distance to an imperceptible end. It is uncommon is modern small format lenses.
