She first learned that the force was a real thing when Han Solo says the ever so cringy line purely written for the trailer "It's true, the force the jedi, all of it, it's all true".
Next mentioning of the force to Rey was Maz Kanata when she talks very briefly about it. "It moves through and surrounds every living thing, close your eyes the light it's always been there it will guide you" not exactly clear Ikea instructions on how to use the force in a melee battle against a sith is it?
Next we see Ray use force mind control to influence Daniel Craig to drop his blaster. So apparently she taught herself this power all by herself in the moment on a whim? Ok sure let's give the writers that one even though it changes everything we know about the need of training to master use of the force.
Her final use of the force comes in the fight against Kylo Ren. A day or two after learning that the force is a real thing. Here is where the writers put the final nail in the coffin that is the Jedi training we know and love. In the words of the newly turned Darth Vader in ROTS "This is the end for you my master".
Kylo says "You need a teacher, I can show you the ways of the force"
Rey then whispers to herself "The force" (cue the eye rolling) and after a FUCKIN 20 SECOND PAUSE with lightsabers inches away from their faces (because WHY NOT we have already abandoned reason) she starts to kick the ass of a 30yo direct descendant of Anakin Skywalker who has been trained in the jedi arts by Luke fucking Skywalker and is most likely the second or third most powerful force user in the galaxy. He can stop a fucking blaster bolt traveling 335 mph mid air... and hold it there while he goes about his business! Without any training and on the same day she saw a light saber for the first time she makes Kylo Ren look like a drooling infant wielding a styrofoam tube. And all because he mentioned the force to her in passing....
If this is logical please plop me into the boxing ring against Anthony Joshua and whisper in my ear "Mike Tyson" so I can hand him his ass.
TLDR: Rey uses The Force to control a Storm Troopers mind and defeat Kylo Ren a day after learning that The Force exists and without any training, teachings, guidance or instructions on how to use it.
