Then there's the technology used by both sides, which might as well be magic in this film. The sci-fi rules established in previous films are largely ignored to the point that it's hard to know how much danger our heroes are in. We don't know the limits of what they can do—or what the enemy can do for that matter. This only gets worse thanks to all the new technobabble being thrown around (so much so that those watching the film in theaters are handed a literal list of all the new terms upon entering). As a result, this confusion unnecessarily diminishes the tension in any given scene.
