I loved it because it looked at themes outside of the normal star wars universe.
It would have been easy for them Chirrutt a former jedi injured by order 66, and in the middle of the main battle he could have pulled out a light sabre and fans would have probably accepted it.
Or have a cameo by Han Solo.
As it was the callbacks to the original movie characters were put in to link the movies and because they were cool but not that important.
Except for Vader, he was the reward to die hard fans for coming out and watching a movie that they would have normally pulled apart.
The one type of movie that I miss were the 60's and 70's war movies, the new ones are too loud with too many individual hero's who try to be deep and complex.
This one wasn't the premise was pretty much razor thin, and it worked well, the hero's weren't complex, the villains were simple, and there wasn't a jedi or the force to be seen until 5 minutes from the end.
TLJ just from a story telling/scripting/character standpoint was a mess.
