I enjoyed it. I was really frustrated when cannon became legends but I'm over it. As long as they don't ruin Thrawn (which I hope is ok with it being written by Timothy Zan) I'll be happy.
I personally think it fit quite well with the time line.. I like the idea that every second movie will be Skywalker / Standalone
I though it was a really nice change to actually have some (trying to avoid spoilers here) consequences and not all roses and happy endings
The only thing that really annoyed me was the Tarkin CGI (when you own: ILM and Pixar surely that should be on point)
And Saw Gerrera was under-utilised and a little weird.
Otherwise I feel I achieved what it set out to do which was to fill in the gap between 3 & 4 and focus on showing us more of the SWCU without focusing solely on Solo's and Skywalkers.
Sorry this ended up a little long but I love my Star Wars
and I'm way over invested in it.
