Cheese is definitely the right word. The scope is great - the plot is fine - the cast is stacked - but I don't think Twohy is the right director for his own scripts. If you start poking around Wikipedia, wondering why the energy's askew sometimes, there's nobody else to pin it on. The writer/director also wrote The Fugitive. One of the editors was Oscar-nominated. Some of the head-scratching scenes involve Judi fucking Dench.
It's nearly a Joel Schumacher situation, where the production needed one more person, to occasionally go "I dunno, Dave. Is it supposed to be that silly?" Either answer is fine, but if people have to wonder, you missed.
