It's good if you aren't expecting another FFX. If you do that you will be sadly disappointed. However, if you treat it as just a new game, you might be pleasantly surprised. You are however about to read about 100 posts saying how this is the crappiest game in existence and how their eyes bleed when they play it.

Don't listen to mine or anyone else's opinion. I like it, others don't. Rent it and play it for a while and see what you think. If you like it, buy it. Just know that the story doesn't really start being that interesting until about a third of the way through the game.
