He's a very capable director with a good eye for visuals. I didn't like
House of Wax, but everything else he's made has been, at the very least, entertaining. Even with a fairly minimal plot (as in
The Shallows), he can make a gripping film. Unsurprisingly,
Jungle Cruise looked good, but the story and characters weren't very interesting.
