I quite enjoyed the Lore side of the movie and how it was told between Snoke, Luke, Rey and Ren. When Rey saw just her reflection I was think Captian's Palpatine clone theory could be in play. Also in the Throne room scenes Snoke seemed like he could be a resurrected palpatine. But overall I like the ways Rey's parents are
Nobody's or a future twist, I liked Kylo's refusal to kill Leia, I liked snokes death and I really liked how Luke let the physical world go once he was at piece.
He also in that moments saves Kylo Ren, he says something like Ren could never come back if he kills Luke so Luke didn't force Ren to kill him. Loved the Force isn't about moving rocks and the end being the force being used to move rocks.
My only complaint lore wise was Snoke was unexplained. That was lazy and made his death less satisfying.
So they got the Star Wars theory right but made a not great movie. I think you just cut out the whole Casino part and just have Finn/Rose get to the Star destroyer some other way. Then use that half hour of screen time to proved Snokes back story. The Leia fake death would have been fantastic if that was where she really died. Show her and Ackbar floating in space dying together.
I think with a few reahoots and a better cut of the movie it could have been amazing. Very similar to Revenge of the Sith. Good lore but some cringe worth movie points
