There were many things that he didn't like. One was that no one outside of the clergy could read The Bible. It wasn't in German. It was mostly Latin. So he translated it into German so the common people could understand it and read it by themselves. Another big thing was that the Catholic Church had indulgences. They told people that the only way for their deceased loved ones to get out of purgatory and into Heaven was to pay money. Luther said that that was wrong and the only way into Heaven was faith in Jesus Christ. These are just two but you could Google it and find out many other things he didn't like about the Roman Catholic Church.

Who created the Lutheran church?

His followers. I have been raised Lutheran and I have learned that Martin Luther's original intentions were not at all to break with the Catholic church, he in fact encouraged his followers not to break from the church, he just wanted to change the corruptness of it and focus more on the Bible. The way I understand it to be is that Martin Luther's followers (not Martin Luther, it was after his death) broke from the Catholic church because they recognized the strength of the church itself and were insulted by the fact that the Catholic church excommunicated Luther.
