"If the Cumming/Lauper one (also not without issues) was a 'jaw dropper,' is that supposed to be a bad thing?"

It was a bad thing (in my opinion) because it wasn't a jaw dropper in a good way, not even bearing in mind (of course) what Brecht wanted in terms of the "alienation" or "strange-making" effect.
