This may come off as rather provocative, but Return of the Jedi is a very mediocre film with a fantastic soundtrack that never really gets its chance to shine.
I’d say it’s average for a Star Wars film but still much more enjoyable than most Sci Fi or Fantasy or Action flicks I’ve seen. There are parts of the movie that really do shine and are obscured by the remainder of the movie which seems somewhat cobbled together.
I really enjoyed Rogue One. But I also really loved ROTJ after having first seen it as a kid. Back then it was my favorite of all the SW films. I came to see its flaws over the years. I feel the same way about R1. It has some of the best sequences in any SW film but over time it will take its rightful place among the remainder of the films and settle somewhere near ROTJ which is where I think most people on thie forum have been placing it.
