The movie was a huge disappointment from start to end. It seems incoherent with the rest of the saga.
Luke is totally out of character here: the man who gambled his freedom and life to turn Darth Vader from the Dark Side, considering the murder of his nephew? Did Johnson watch the original trilogy?
Rey is a nobody. So why did the Skywalker lightsaber call to her and why is she so strong in the Force? Let's hope Episode IX has some answers for that.
Leia was never trained in the Force yet she can survive in space and come back to her ship sky-walking.
Hux and Poe are turned into a clown and an incompetent hotshot respectively, a far cry from their depiction in The Force Awakens.
Finn and Rose's arc could have been cut from the movie without consequences.
Phasma, once again, was heavily advertised and then taken out in a matter of minutes. Same goes for Snoke.
The sequences involving Holdo and Leia could have been reshot so that Leia would be the one performing the Heroic Sacrifice and Holdo took the helm. Instead we have a new character wasted and Leia's character being a dead end due to Fisher's death.
A complete waste of time (spoilers)
