Add Rogue One, as well
I rewatched it (several times, actually...) recently after Andor S2 and was just a little underwhelmed after years of remembering it through rose-tinted lenses. That's not to say it's a bad movie. Just kinda mid or slightly above average, which puts it far ahead of the rest of the Disney-era Star Wars movies. But next to the quality of Andor there are definitely some things that stick out.
Some critiques I have are pacing, unearned character flip-flopping when convenient, and supporting characters whose own motivations don't go far beyond supporting the main characters.
It still has a special place in my heart and this isn't to say other SW media is without flaw. I think Rogue One is a fun movie but its greatness lies in how it sets up the Andor series rather than anything it does by itself.
I definitely think the best way to appreciate it is immediately following the Andor series, which itself is best after a Rogue One watch, at least the first time around. I.e. Rogue One -> Andor -> Rogue One
