Admittedly, it's partly bias. Solo came on the heels of TLJ. Both Solo and the TLJ both had initial great reviews, which really pissed a lot of people off, as the TLJ was crap and Solo was mediocre. Solo was part of Disney's plan to churn out a bunch of crap every 6 months, but they seem to have corrected course.

There was also some bad timing with having the Mad Queen as your love interest.

I wouldn't actually mind rewatching Solo now that my nerd rage towards TLJ has cooled a bit. However, there were still a bunch of stuff that irked me about it.
