Not bad, but here's a few pointers.
The TT (title) gets lost on the spine, because the guy is almost the same color. Same goes for the credits, they become very hard to read.
Usually it's not a good idea to have pictures of someone (or something) underneath the credits and template info.
Text alignment could have been better, making the text align on both left and the right sides.
To add some depth to your cover you could have placed the ships on the front in front of the TT, so it looks like the TT is behind them. Same with the guys head on the back where the screen caps are.
Why so many different colors? I feel like the text "A rebellion..." should be gold, same as TT. Blu-Ray logo on spine could be gold or white.
I would recommend you to try out the W.I.P thread when you're new, you can learn a ton of things there, people are very helpful and your covers and skill will improve a lot.

Nice work, like Speed said with a bit of work it could be better, maybe we should move this to the W.I.P thread if you're happy to?

As well as what speed has already suggested, I would consider removing the partial character images off the spine. Once the cover is on the shelf, the image becomes redundant. It would also help you to make the TT clearer on the spine.

That would breaks the continuity of the open cover, but I see your point, I'll work on it. Thanks for the tip. :goodidea:

Good point :p Maybe you could make it so a characters head can be seen on the spine?

That works much better now :) Maybe you could add a semi transparent black block behind the legals?
