I finally realized what I didn't like about Episode VIII 

Basically the movie has some potentially big, strong story arcs, and in every case the movie goes that direction and introduces and enough fluff, distractions or weak points that none of the story arcs really *really* bang their point home.

The result is something which I enjoyed a lot but which wasn't actually good.

@Leucrotta yes! It had so much potential, and then it just sort of squandered it

@Leucrotta Totally. It's one of the rare moments in which I feel they should have split that film into two films. There was too much going on at the same time to really linger properly on much of it, and as a result it diluted the impact of the major plot points.
