This movie is a great action flick with very high production values.
But it is just plain stupid. The script is so dumb, full of plotholes. You can only enjoy this movie if you shut of your brain before you watch it and never again think of what happened in it.
It takes the laziness of Star Wars 7 and 8 to a hole new level of inconsistency. This is a merchandise vehicle and the story makes no sense whatsoever. It relies purely on completely artificially taked on fan-service and contrived twists and macguffins.
However flawed and not well aged the prequel trilogy was (and it had also some plotholes), at least it tried to tell a consistent story and character arcs.
Unfortunately star wars has joined the dark side now.
