Loved the short film which it was based on and so had a great expectation when G Del Toro became attached with the project but as a whole, I'm disappointed with the final product. You already mentioned 2 flaws & I agree with them, particularly that 'Disney-like' climax was the major disappointment. Moreover, from the short I was expecting the MaMa should have a sad, dark & twisted past and that they would bring with the details in the movie; which was missing. And last but not the least, as a ghostly entity the CGI effect for MaMa was kinda silly & wasn't as terrifying as I expected.
