- - Reliance on backing track
- - The set being minimalist and not built for stadiums
- - The atmosphere apparently worse compared to David Guetta
However they praise:
- - Her crowd interaction
- - Attempts to speak in French
- - The outfits and her look/style
- - Attitude and charisma carrying the show

These are the reason why this tour doesn't suck. She doesn't rely on big budget stage, weird costumes, tons of dancers. It's her attitude and charisma that carries the show. Some artist get overshadowed by the high production of their tours, but when I saw Rihanna, I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I didn't care about the stage or the dancers. She can hype the crowd all alone.
But it's true that she relies on the backing track too much at times. She didn't use this much backing track on Loud Tour.
