Subtitling extremely bad

Not sure what versions others have seen, but the version I watched had horrendous English subtitles that often made little sense. Since the movie involved several English speaking stars, I was quite surprised at this. It really detracted from the experience. Did others have this issue, or is there an English language version out?

lol you probably got pirated chinese version. they literally throw the entire chinese subtitle in bablefish and translate it like that. so even bits that are spoken in english would have wrong subs because it was chinese first then translated to english which makes no sense.
