It could have been a great action-movie and the fight-choreography is fantastic. But what killed that movie for me was the bad comedy. A CGI-snake biting the guy in the lips, the CGI Bugs-Bunny-race...

Going for CGI with the fights was inevitable within terms of the story, because the story progressed with power-creep. But the CGI-comedy was just bad.
