I'm only really talking about my personal reactions to the characters here, not so much trying to draw out a reading of the text or tell anyone else how to feel. I acknowledge that Rey has some darkness to her, and it would probably take several rewatchings of the movie and a lot of thought to work out exactly why that darkness doesn't apply in the same way that Kylo Ren's kind of darkness and dysfunction does, but that is the way that I feel about the character.

WRT Kylo, no, I didn't miss his refusal to kill his mother, but I don't think that only murdering one of his parents is enough to make me like him. And that's also not to say that he's irredeemable or anything like that - I think he probably will be redeemed, in fact. But I think it's going to be really hard for him to be redeemed, and in the meantime, he's just not a character that I find very sympathetic.

Yeah, this. Good job on not directly killing your mother, dude. Unfortunately, you're also leading a group of people who are plenty happy to do the job for you when you hesitate.

Way to set the bar really low.

Beyond this, when he does have the opportunity to speak from his heart, it's all victim-blaming bullshit.
