A Star Wars movie should be judged on several levels. It is important to judge it with other Star Wars movies. But also other movies of various types. It is part of a series, so comparing it to other series would be interesting. How does it compare to the last Pirates movie, or Logan, or any other later series installment. It’s also worth comparing it to current movies or any slice of the movie industry you care to. Every comparison gives useful data. Critics loved it. It has been very popular in the box office. Some Star Wars fans hate it, done love it. That was very similar to the reaction to TESB in 1980, while today it is considered the best of the saga, a status it didn’t gain until well after ROTJ. So every comparison will tell you something about it as a movie. Only you can say if you liked it or not and your opinion might change based on IX, or something else.
