I really thought it was clunky and poorly edited for a lot of the film. Nothing flowed most of the time.
Oh, and the dark humor from the droid was a good idea, but poorly executed. I think I laughed once.
Perhaps with a re-watching I would find it more entertaining, but overall, it was pretty meh.
And someone needs to explain to me why they created a character like Sol Guerrera (like Che Guevara??? Really?) with all this intrigue and back story, and cool mechanization, only to kill him off right away?
Terrible decision as far as I'm concerned. This is night and day compared to the J.J. Abrams excellently executed episode 7.
I give it about a 6.5/10.

I think that Saw was more of a wink towards continuity in the OT. He had a major character arc in the Clone Wars series as he was a resistance fighter who watched his sister get killed by separatists.
It was actually one of the better arc's in a series full of them.
