It's certainly not the worst of Star Wars films.

I maintain that this film is not close to the train wreck people make it out to be. In the past decade Hollywood has spit out far worse with high expectations.

This is completely true, but this is the first and greatest of them really. If this film weren't part of a pre-established already loved franchise, then it would have been seen as a movie with cool special effects and a loose story. There have been much worse and insulting adaptations than this film, like its sequel for instance, which I'm sure would have been shat on for a while regardless of the preexisting franchise. Lines like "I don't like sand. It's coursa, and rough, and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth." That's an all time bad line right there that no one would let any writer live down.
