Garbage: gravity bombs in space in the stupidest imaginable bomber design, Poe winning half a battle on his own in the opening sequence, Leia loving force flying back out of space (felt extremely farcical), BB-8 killing like 10,000 people on his own, Snoke just dying without any real explanation as to his background other than "generic new bad guy," loving porgs overstayed their welcome, the entire Rose/Finn plot in the last third was remarkably stupid and pointless, Rose ramming Finn's ship to "save him," the purple-haired Vice Admiral almost getting everyone killed by inspiring a mutiny via zany miscommunications, the Republic forces being so incredibly puny/non-existent in the first place, hyperdrive used as a superweapon trump card does not seem right in the star wars universe

Good: Surprisingly, the Rey/Kylo/Luke stuff all came together extremely well and I really ended up getting into their plot despite thinking Kylo and Rey were pretty weak characters in VII, Luke was cool (although I wasnt a fan of how he died, even if it seemed clear he had to die somehow), Yoda was cool, the last stand mounted on the planet was pretty cool, also the casino city was cool in theory as a setting even though the plot there was garbage

Overall, a notch below VII.
