See, I thought he was actually playing Han when he went on about being conflicted. (Like you, OP, I went in spoiled.) "I think I can do it" = "I think I can kill you," not "I think I can turn to good" as Han had hoped.

Hmmm. I never considered that. I don't think I see it that way, but it is a really interesting take.

I think he was conflicted, but what he wanted to do was kill Han because it would mean he's “strong enough" to overcome his doubts and the light and embrace the dark side. (So I sort of agree about Kylo's words.)

And maybe that's why I like that scene. The dialogue wasn't Shakespeare, but I thought it worked and the actors hit it out of the park.

Yeah, that was my interpretation too, and I thought it was well-done. Though I tend to be a little easier to please in terms of emotional scenes in movies, maybe because I am an emotional/easily moved person myself.

I pretty much always thought this and to me it's like...his struggle is real and his moment of grief for what he's about to do is real but even those emotions he is using to deceive Han because he wants to overcome them.

Yeah, he knows is trying to impress Snoke with how tough and supposedly badass he is in order to get into the cool kids' gang, but really he just wants to go "daddy I wuv you and want a hug" and is about to burst into tears over that until the lights go out and he manages to shiv Han in the dark. Because he is too much of a massive limp penis to shiv someone with the lights on.

I thought that was a possible interpretation too, but I wasn't sure if I felt that way because:

1) I was meant to and the ambiguity was purposeful
2) the guy playing Kylo Ren didn't have the acting chops to pull off the "I feel so conflicted" moment
3) shitty writing

So really, I'm still not sure.

I agree with all of this.

+1 I thought it was really obvious that this is what was happening. I think that took a lot of suspense out of the scene because it was just a matter of at what moment would he kill Han not if he would kill him.
