Luke used the force for similar and even more outlandish things in the old EU. I don't say this as a defence of TLJ, I'm just pointing out that no, there is nothing the force can't do.
Magic is fine if it has rules, and the characters continue to obey those rules during the length of the novel/movie/series/etc.
Magic becomes a crutch when it's the end all solution to any problem.
There were far subtler ways Retard Johnson could have had Leia use the Force that wouldn’t have come off as the fake-out asspull that it was. One that comes mind is Force-pulling some cable or hose out of some access panel on the ship”s bridge and holding onto it to stop herself from being blown out into space.
The nuTriligy's main goal was to make Leia seem like she was always better than Luke. So Rian had to have a scene where Leia did something so amazing with the force to set up this bridge into the 3rd and final movie (it was even being touted as 'HER' movie) where we see the savior of the galaxy was always supposed to be Leia and the force is female now and huge girl power moment. Because heaven forbid a woman be badass in her own right, a political figure, and important and skilled at different things. She has to also be better than the men at everything.
Carrie Fisher did us such a service dying beforehand.
They doubled-down on that in Obi-Wan Kenobi, too. We see cuck slave Luke getting bossed around by Uncle Owen and held back, while precocious, hyper-intelligent 10 year old Leia ditches her royal guards and talks shit to bounty hunters while her parents despair at their inability to control her. She's clearly being retroactively painted as the more powerful twin with more potential, which not only emasculates Luke and his journey but also cuts down Vader (even more) that he jobbed to his WEAKER kid.
Totally worth six episodes of child hijinks and Vader getting his ass kicked by Obi-Wan again while failing to perform his function, which was wiping out leftover Jedi. How many times did they actually face off before the Death Star (aka how many times does Vader fail to kill one guy before guy just gives up and lets Vader kill him?)

shes surviving in the vacuum of space for a long period of time and then came back to life with a coke fueled need to consume. she travels to the blown out bridge she was on and the blast door that shut to seal off the void in case of emergencies is only thing between her and the people inside. they somehow opened that blast door without killing everyone inside and venting into space again and brought her inside the ship. she survived with no injuries despite a fucking laser blowing out the bridge and killing everyone else int he first place. she had no force powers up to this point.

Literally when is this established? Even ignoring the dumb space physics of Star Wars (explosions) and the fact that it's a movie with filmmaking techniques (grabbing a gun might take 10+ seconds for dramatic effect):
How did you get this, and why is it a problem? You don't die if you enter outer space.
Make TLJ the movie “critics” claim it is.
Fortnite announcement haha no way could it ever make an announcement on fortnite hahaha
See why kids love cinnamon toast crunch

Magic is always a lazy writer escape.

Yep. Forget that Leia is growing up in a city to a royal family while Luke is on a literal dirt farm. She's just BETTER ok?
Now we know why Ben Solo got his name!
