Are you asking about how to say that you are revising your original negative opinion of something after having heard someone else praise that thing?

You could say "Now I see things in a different perspective".

Not really, "It looks different now." might imply something physically looking different.
A more suitable response might be "I've changed my mind.", meaning you have thought about it and now your opinion is different. Marriam-Webster's definition:
to change one's decision or opinion about something
If it is stronger of more emotional, you could use "I've had a change of heart." Marriam-Webster's definition:
a reversal in position or attitude
Such as in
I was going to destroy everything on earth, but then I had a change of heart, and started gardening.
