Negatives were nearly everything else, especially the color by numbers plot. I will say that (I'm apparently alone on this) I think Adam Driver's acting is one of the few interesting elements. He could just play the part over the top evil but he walks this odd line where you're constantly wondering where he's really coming from. Nuance! In a Star Wars character? Imagine.

The Star Wars movies have always been flawed but enjoyable, now they're mostly just flawed.

I love how he's playing his role and for the reasons you stated. I haven't seen him in anything else so I don't know if he's just that good or he just knows how to play this character but I think he hits it just right. Most actors who excel with a certain character type usually end up being typecast. It will be interesting to see him in other movies.
