Not good. I'm not a fan of the long boring politics of Star Wars or the real world politics Lucas put in there. IMO the only real positive of the prequels was McGregor's performance despite what he had to work with.
I'd actually watch a "prequel" film that told his story after ROTS.
I actually liked the Poe, Finn, and Ray characters from TFA. The only things I didn't like were how OP Ray was and the soft-reboot storyline. It made no sense. It didn't ruin the film it just took away from it. TLJ had an opportunity to explain why Ray would be so OP and I think most fans would have been ok if they had done that.
But they didn't. And on top of that more questions were raised and more silliness was added.
If you watch the prequels again you'll see that Lucas did the same thing with Anakin. He was stupid OP and just magically great at everything. The only saving grace was his huge jump in time from the 1st and 2nd prequel films. Anakin was a Gary Stu in that first film, it was also bad then, but people often forget that when throwing shit at the new film...
