Pure fan fiction. That's cool, but I think a film needs much more than that to be a good movie. Biggest issue are the characters, poorly written and with no appeal at all. This is a movie that depicts a very important event in the Star Wars universe. We know how this is going to end, so what we need is a bunch of great characters we will care for. And it doesn't happen. There is no empathy for them, we don't care if they live or die. Characters are the most important part in any movie, and they were crucial in this one, but they were flat and predictable instead.
But, in the end, it doesn't matter. We have a good shot (Darth Vader with his saber), we have a glimpse of the Episode IV, connecting the action of this film with that one, and this is all what the fans are looking for. They don't care about quality. They want the same all over and over again. That's why this or The Mandalorian are considered good and the Episode VII, probably the best after The empire strikes back, kind of a mess.
