There are a lot of plot elements that simply don't make any sense beyond being Excuse Plot to set the movie in motion.
It starts as the same poorly written romance novels with a nobody girl stuck on a dead end job with zero prospects up until a mysterious stranger enters her life revealing that she is more important than she thinks she is and now the universe revolves around her.
The movie does try to tackle some serious subjects like the consumerism, "animal" rights, exploitative and heartless capitalism but never goes further into them besides being the motivation for the antagonists.
The less serious ones are just a mockeries of obstructive bureaucracy and astrology mostly for comedy value.
On the other hand the action scenes are very well made and entertaining, the scenery is a sight to behold with the characters, ships, interiors and other features turning into sceneryporn and into scenerygorn later.
It isn't an awe inspiring movie but if you watch it as a mild space opera sci-fi movie and try to ignore the poorly written romance it is an enjoyable movie.
Cliche storm but still enjoyable
