It's cheesy, it's embarassing, it's humiliating for Vader's character, and it was a mistake.
I've got to disagree with you about the "Nooo" too! Put yourself in Vaders new shoes: You've just found out you've killed your own wife in your anger. (Which is another Sidious lie, but that's not the point here.) The whole reason for turning to the dark side was to save her, thus he killed his whole reason for being. And he's probably thought he killed his unborn child too.
I did not feel it was cheesy or embarassing. I felt heartbroken watching it. That whole scene made me cry, it did, and I've no shame in saying it. Hearing Vader's voice ask about Padme was absolutely chilling. His "Nooo" just broke my heart. "Look what you've done" I kept saying to myself. Look at his face right before it's covered by the mask, it's a face filled with fear.
Vader was never the great Satan, he's Satan's errand boy. His whole life's a tragedy. He did not become a Jedi master nor a Sith master. No wonder he became obsessed with finding Luke, so he could finally become a leader. But Luke made good choices, while Anakin made bad ones.
