I fully understand your gripes, and don't completely disagree, but the opening fanfare was deliberately different because it's not a "main episode" entry. It's a side story and was treated as such and I could appreciate Lucasfilms for making small changes but keeping that star wars feel about it.
I agree with all the bouncing around in the beginning, trying to figure out where we are and what's going on now, oh we're changing location again, okay.
Whittaker's voice WAS annoying.
I was impressed with the CG for the general and Leia, not at all mad about that.
I liked all the little 'silent nods' to the original trilogy. Like the duo that Obi Wan roughs up in the cantina making a cameo running into Jyn on the street.
I saw it in theaters twice, opening day the audience was way more into it, laughing and cheering and applauding.
2nd time 3 days later most people were snacking entirely too loudly for me to even enjoy it again.
All in all, I'm easily entertained so I loved it. Did feel rushed at a lot of points but great scenery and battles. And duh, Vader going ham. Wish there was more of that.
