This movie has about as
many (or more) plot holes and inconsistencies as some of the worst
B-movies of the Eighties. Nothing makes sense, nothing feels designed to
have some meaning or to build drama, instead everything that happens is
like a loose succession of trivialities:
Protagonists stumble upon each other as if the whole galaxy was small like a village.
Protagonists don't seem to be able to express any real human emotions, apart from violent outbursts like 8 year olds, or shallow friendships. Nothing feels real. Protagonists turn into friends or enemies without real character development. It's like when you watch 8 year olds narrate stories while they play with their SW toys. Movie plot has the exact same emotional depth as 8 year olds playing with toys, I am not kidding.
Don't expect to hear a new compelling music score, you won't find any. Also don't expect to see new creatures or planets that stimulate your imagination, creature design is just a rehash of what we are used to, NOTHING new is explored, no new planets or sceneries. (you just get the obligatory desert and ice planet, etc... I thought we had a whole galaxy to explore???
Can you believe how shallow the character design is? Apparently there exists an Asian looking gang in this universe whose name is KanjiKlub-Gang. You can't make this stuff up. It's EXACTLY what an 8 year old would choose as name.
Also there is a childish understanding of astronomy, like in one scene having multiple planets just a few thousand miles apart from each other. (the old trilogy had much more scientific accuracy, at least they didn't make such glaring mistakes)
This movie feels like a giant jedi mind trick. It's a TRAP!
