First impression: 8/10
My first impression of this poster is very good. It is interestingly designed, the textures suits the mood and was very well chosen. The one thing that threw me off is the slightly awkward positioning which I will discuss later. 

Poster layout: 8/10
The poster layout is good, but not great. There isn't an eye catching element on here, thus gives out a kind of messy vibe. It would be a lot better if you added something that immediately grabs the viewer's attention. 

Font: 3.5/5
The current font looks fine, and it matches the poster well. But it would have been better if you made the title stand out more, whether it's by adding a more defined shadow, deepen the colour, or increase the size of the font. 

Also, maybe it's just me, but I find to quote on the poster to be too small and difficult to see. What's the point of having the text there if no one can see it? 

Character layout: 4/5
I have to admit, this character layout is pretty unique and not often seen. I like the idea you have going, but I find it to be too well balanced, meaning that the spaces are taken up evenly which brings me back to my other point, there is no eye catching point. 

Colour scheme: 5/5
The color scheme is very well chosen. Everything is in harmony. The only suggestion I can make is perhaps make the colours higher contrast for a more brightened and 'active' feeling (this poster seems to be action themed).

Mood: 4/5
To be honest, I can't feel a specific mood from this poster. However, it's not a big deal because I don't think you intended for there to be a strong feelings to occur (light hearted, horror, angst, etc). From the radars and beams, I can tell that this is more of an action themed poster. 

Overall looks: 8/10
The overall of this poster isn't bad. It is fairly pleasant for me to look at. There just need to be a touch of a unique component in here, such as higher contrast colors, exagerated font or certain items, and perhaps even more negative space. I really like the theme and your character positioning idea.

Total score: 40.5/50
