I would have tolerated Rose interrupting Finn’s sacrifice if she had said something like, “I lost my sister, and I couldn’t bear to lose you as well.”

Instead she gives this horrible lecture about how she saved him—he didn’t need saving, he was making a selfless sacrifice for his friends. Instead of running away, he was finally committing to the Resistance and doing something incredibly selfless to help the people and cause that he had come to care about.

Rose comes along out of nowhere and interrupts that, and then has the nerve to lecture him about how you are supposed to fight for the ones you love. That’s exactly what he was doing, stu pid Rose!

Exactly but that's what I'm saying Finn has had the progression and has grown up enough to make that choice. Rose hasn't.

I will agree with you though her ending rant was dumb.

It seemed the theme of the movie. Characters well known to be filled with hope, losing it for seemingly petty reasons, and having it returned by a “mary sue”.

Eh I disagree with the whole mary sue thing for the most part as well. The first movie she was definitely portrayed that way but episode 8 really gave her some redemption in my eyes. She's trying extremely hard to do the right thing and for the most part succeeds. And even though the force is supposed to be "balanced" she is nowhere near as powerful as snoke who can just toy with people using the force.

Don't get me wrong nobody likes the casino planet arc and there were definitely some things that irked me but overall I think it wasn't a bad movie and I think a lot of the hate is extremely overexaggerated and unwarranted. But that's just my opinion.
