For me, the score was one of the weakest elements of the whole movie. A melodic motif that I thought I recognized from Star Wars would crop up, but then deviate. The result sounds like a cheap Star Wars imitation to my ears. Also I suspect the score is not fully orchestrated and uses some digital technology to create certain tracks.

Michael Giacchino is an accomplished film composer whose work I generally respect, but I think he just didn’t have enough time to create the score that this film deserved. Disney is really at fault here for rushing these movies into theaters when they’re not ready.
