This headline is a quote out of context that is being used to imply an admission.

I don’t mind the inference that the movie wasn’t what Yeoh had hoped it might be, but the headline is a misrepresentation of what she said.

What Yeoh actually said is:

Every time I finish a movie or something, I always think, ‘I could have done better,’ so it’s nothing new. That’s how you always have to think to improve yourself and to hopefully be better the next time.

My partner and I seem to be among the relatively few longtime fans who found the S31 film a blast. I still have to wonder though what we might have got if Kim and Lippoldt had been able to run the show that they originally conceived before Paramount added a male non-Asian action flick show runner ‘for experience’. The episode they wrote for Georgiou in S3 of Discovery was excellent and they have been successful writing on Sweet Tooth for seasons 2&3 since they moved on from Trek..

Thanks for clarifying. I responded to the title only as I didn't actually care what Michelle Yeoh thinks and just want to put this sad story into the dustbin of Trekstory. Georgiou was the only mildly interesting character in Discovery and season 2 was the only mildly not-awful one, so I had moderate hopes for that movie.
