Via Damien: Darth Vader's blog.

...You try to be an effective manager, you weed out the bad apples like the late Admiral Ozzel -- only to find that an insidious culture of incompetence has somehow transformed your deadly pan-galactic armada into a fleet of spaceballs.

It's alternately very silly and very good. Certainly a lot more entertaining than the last couple of movies have been, but maybe that's just because it actually pays attention to extant plot and makes some attempt to tie it all meaningfully together. There's even some perverse wisdom in it.

This'll be one to watch.
