TFA has the sin of being derivative in plot and creatively bankrupt. I'd definitely say it's the most dull of the franchise.
However from a competency standpoint, its a better made movie. AotC isn't just a shitty star wars movie, its a shitty film in general. Bad pacing, wooden acting, cringy dialogue, nonsensical character motives, plot threads that go nowhere, etc.

Which is why I’ll always give it 0/10 For effort.
For all it’s flaws at least AOTC is full of imagination from beginning to end, and really did break new ground in cgi as well that not many appreciate, yet lead to things like Avatar being possible.
91% Critics Score, 51% audience score. Box office is a success even while far under the predictions.
Not paying to watch it or any other Disney movie, nor buying merchandise is the best way to criticise a company. Glad to see that a lot of others feel similar. Its a small drop of resistance but talking to friends, family and co workes about how bad this movie is prevents them from wasting money. The benefit of being a fan, your opinion matters to non fans.
So currently The Last Jedi has 51% rating by audiences at Rotten Tomatoes....

To put that in perspective, this is worse than Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, which are rated by audiences at 59% and 57% respectively.

In short, The Last Jedi is the worst received SW film by the fans of the saga.
LOL
Agreed. I even wrote a review of it.
