Lately, I've noticed in action movies, when it gets to the good parts, I'm disappointed becuase the directors use cheap tactics in directing an action scene: the camera shakes around so I can't appreciate the scene.
Cases in point: Batman Begins, Chronicles of Riddick.
Anyone else feel the same?

Strange enough this wave of handheld shaky cameras was sparked off by Danish Dogma95 directors (e.g. Lars von Trier (Breaking the Waves), Thomas Vinterberg (The Celebration)) who in their film manifesto codified for instance that the camera should be handheld. In US-arthouses, Vinterberg's film was a big success and with it came the hand held camera and other techniques that previously were taboo, like camera zoom (very favoured in the 1960s) or immediately panning the camera from one object to another. Anything that happens in the world of camera (and that promises emotional surplus) will be adapted by Hollywood directors and they will drop it as soon as there's something new.
I have to admit I'm sick of the hand held camera, having seen too many Dogma films and European TV movies which try to appear innovative. It's already fading away - just wait a bit and it'll be replaced by another camera style that will jar on your nerves after a while.

As our imaginations are more powerful than anything a producer or director can come up with this is a cheap way to try to evoke emotions and to to portray fast paced chaos and confusion. It makes sense in low-budget movies when you use the tactic, but
I do have to agree that with all the access big budget movies have at their disposal, along with state-of-the art CGI equipment to create special effects it is annoying.

Filmmaking styles ebb and flow, just like any artistic style. I noticed a period of time recently when opening credits were missing in many films. Now they are commonplace again. I wonder what you would've been saying back in the 40's?! "Is anyone getting tired of this highly stylized filmmaking with all the cast shadows?"

I agree. It's very annoying. I am sure there is a better way to shoot. Case in point: Bourne Indentity Series (esp. Supremacy).
