are we talking about CGI in general or CGI special effects in real life films?
either way, it depends on the studio, timeframe and budget available.
as with anything there is nothing wrong with its use if used well. Saying this, as the technology filters down and it becomes easier for people to get their hands on the technology to shoot these shots, the quality is likely to be affected since it looks dated...
CGI is not the real crime here, the real crime is the use of too many western actors being thrown on wires and having fight scenes cheapened...
it's all the matrix's fault.
