The Mr. Plinkett review was far less critical than I was expecting. It sounds like the more he watched and analyzed the movie, the more he found to like about it, which has been exactly my experience.
The most interesting point they made was that many of the obstacles the characters faced in the film were completely of their own making and very avoidable. Finn and Rose’s whole plan goes south because they parked their shuttle on a public beach? I find that very frustrating as a viewer and not terribly satisfying. Also there’s Poe’s loose lips leading to the destruction of all their shuttles. Kind of just general incompetence.
