I wouldn't say 'bad': The movie is anything but faithful to the characters in the book or in the previous movies. The story does not come, except from a few plot-traits, from the books or the other movies... It has nothing to do with the original stories, apart from a few elements and, say, 'indicia'...
Nevertheless, it's still a movie. A real movie. It does not escape the natural 'rules' of any movie. Hence, and as happens with most movies, some may like, and some may hate. I happen to know examples from both cases...
On a more particular note... I love pretty much every movie I've seen (really, I'm not exaggerating, I get laughed at a lot for enjoying movies everyone deem as 'bad'). Yet this one, I did not like at all; I think it's the only movie I could never stand to watch again... Even with Jack Black and all, I don't like it myself...
