Except it objectively sucked...

The writing was pretty awful, with that pointless casino subplot. And who cares about the sacrifice of a random, unknown character. Make it interesting and inpactful. That should've been Leia on the ship.

Oh, and there's no such thing as out of range in space. Out of effective range, sure, distance can make aiming harder, but a blaster bolt or a solid projectile will continue until it hits something.

As for not being able to catch up to the fleeing ship? Yeah, it was smaller, so could have more acceleration, but other than the speed of light, there is no speed limit in space, short of the amount of fuel you're willing to expend to make something move faster. And once you're at that speed, you can cut off the engines and coast at that speed. Until you hit something.

Why aren't lightspeed missiles/torpedos a thing? Just a solid chunk of matter with the right engine on it could take out just about anything.

So now your expecting accurate science in a space fantasy movie that is part of a space fantasy series that has never been particularly scientifically accurate?

If you are thinking at all about the mechanics of FTL travel, you are doing Star Wars completely wrong

You sound like the Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons.
