Every single bit of setup in TFA about Rey got swept under the rug in a very very unsatisfactory way. That's one issue.

I don't think it was unsatisfactory. You might not have liked it, but I thought it was both justified in-story, with the amount of emotional weight that was given to Rey learning to stand on her own. I also found it pretty pretty satisfying and rewarding in its own terms - it's cool that Rey is representing the light side of the force because she is, not because she happens to be a Skywalker. But taste is taste.

Luke Skywalker, Mr. "I won't kill my father" just up and letting fear consume him to the point that he nearly killed his nephew, is another.

I think "nearly killed his nephew" is overstating it a little. And more to the point, I think this makes a lot of sense for Luke and for Star Wars? It's one of the major themes of the series that everyone is fallible, and it's the point where you think you're not that you're in danger. I dunno. It made sense to me.

The fact that Kylo let that one moment be what made him SLAUGHTER his classmates, is also another.

My sense was that Snoke had already been manipulating him at that point - probably for a long time. I didn't get the sense that one moment made him slaughter his classmates. Rather, it was the final spark that pushed him over the edge. He was already a long way down the path.

The whole casino bit and how Finn was reduced to side kick to a secondary character instead of BEING THE MALE LEAD like he's supposed to be, in one more.

The plotting was a little wonky, but it's the middle movie of a trilogy. This is the kind of thing that happens sometimes in middle movies of trilogies.

Again, I sort of come back to - it certainly had its flaws, but I don't know how much more you could reasonably expect from a Star Wars movie in the middle of a trilogy.
