The shoulder line actually seems like a throwback to the original X5. I traced a line over the original X5 and you can see the resemblance. (refer to attached image). The new one is formed by a crease whereas the original was formed by the indent/bulge along the doors (can't think of a better way to describe it right now, sorry).
As a designer, I don't understand what people mean it is very 'un-BMW like' as new design elements are introduced from time to time otherwise things would be extremely repetitive wouldn't it? The entire original X5 was very un-BMW like after all.
I'm looking forward to this X5 reveal, can't wait!
