I just saw it a second time and I can say that I love about 90 % of it, which is not that bad.

I feel like everything has already been said but here's my good and bad points :

Let's start with the bad !

Bad points :

- A lot of WTF moments A. LOT. And the climax completely failed me. I mean I kinda loved the moment where everyone was saying his name but when he started to levitate in his silly glowing light I couldn't stop the giggles. It was a horrifying moment because Doctor Who never made me laugh unintentionaly. And it's just worse on second viewing. The power of words is a lovely concept in itself but the execution was poorly done and the messianic image was just too much.

- Could Jack have been more underused ? SRSLY ! You have this awesome character back and you only use him as soldier extra #2 in the last episode ? That was a shame. That and not having him snog Ten at all *grumbles*

- I love Ten, he's my favorite Doctor and I adore him. This is why I hate SO VERY MUCH when they make me feel some kind of... Annoyance towards him. This is my principal problem with the goodbyes between him and Martha.
'Okay.' Excuse me what ? What kind of answer is that ? A tiny tiny recognition for all she's done for him the past year would have been too much to ask ? What comes out of this scene for me is that she's awesome and he's an ass and didn't deserve her anyway. AND THAT PAINS ME.
This is what David Tennant has to say in the Confidential : 'He knows he's not behaved that well to her as well. He knows he's been thoughtless sometimes.' Yes, I really hope he does and that he's going to think about it real hard during the time she'll be gone.

Good points :

- Martha Jones. She was magnificent in it and I've never loved her as much as I did in the finale. It took real guts to spend a whole year spreading hope across the world when she had no guaranties she would stay alive long enough to see the payoff. She's gone through some tough times and since Family of Blood we really saw how strong she's become and what an awesome companion she makes. Like David said in the Confidential, Ten would be nowhere without her.
First, I was shocked and kind of hurt to watch her leave (upon a second viewing it makes me cry harder than the Master death) but thinking back at it it feels right for her character growth because she couldn't have gone out with more class than she did in that moment. She couldn't be blamed for falling in love with him. The fact that he couldn't see her (and most importantly, would have been able to at any other point in time) was what made me empathize so much with her in the first place and it may be painful to watch but I'm finally relieved that she had what it takes to make that choice.
You go have hawt sex with Milligan now girl ! And see you around soon, Miss Jones <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
(Ok I may be taking things a lot better because I'm just completely excited by today's BBC anouncement concerning my girl because three episodes of TW and half the fourth season of DW is MUCH better that what I expected *squee*)

- I loved the Master's wackiness and sadism, the first scene when we see him dancing around, singing, happy like a kid in a candy store was brilliant. And the Doctor in his little doggy tent made me laugh and laugh, talk about BDSM relationship XD.
His final 'fuck you' to the Doctor was a truly terrible and clever move to get back at him. I'm already missing John Simm *SIGH*

- The Toclafane as the Last Humans was a chilling revelation and I loved when the Master said 'the Human Race, greatest monsters of them all.'

- TEN/MASTER IS THE TRUE OTP OF THIS SHOW. 'It's time to change. Maybe I've been wandering for too long.' AADLSDJSLD. COME ON !! HE WAS EVEN READY TO SETTLE DOWN WITH HIM. HE WAS CHOOSING DOMESTICITY. WILLINGLY. *SCREAMS*
So that death scene broke me. Ten's desperation broke me. David's acting broke me. And the slashiness killed me ded. I also loved a little earlier when they were outside and the Master gave up destroying the world for him *flails*

- Jack is the Face of Boe HEE. HEE. HEE. That made me LOLZ, it still do.

Overall, the good points beats the bad points hands down and I really loved the episode, just not as much as the first two parts.

Here's a hilarious thread about what Martha's first lines in Torchwood could possibly be. (I just love this one : "Jack, why is there a monkey leering at me?"
"Don't be so mean to Owen." XD XD XD)

So.

Now it's time for a little rant (unrelated to the finale) :

I understand and accept that I'm surrounded in real life by Rose (which for the record, I like) and/or Ten/Rose (which I even still read for crissake) lovers. It's no big deal. I don't feel alone because I still have a good half of the fandom to go to if I want to discuss the awesomeness of Martha Jones (*cuddles

lifeonmartha*) or my love for the Martha/Ten relationship.
What I do not enjoy on the other hand, is being repeatedly picked on because of who I like most by those fans. I've never engaged myself in a wank about who's the most awesome between Martha and Rose because I love both characters.
I'm just more fond of Martha and that shouldn't be an issue, it's a personal taste (as if I was alone on this !). I'd like it if people could respect that a little more.
I'm tired of having to constantly defend myself and being told how wrong I am.
Moreover, the unfortunate side effect of hearing constantly how Rose is so very perfect that no one can come close to her greatness (as a companion and as the only possible love for the Doctor *rolls eyes*) is that my love for her is faltering and that's a real shame. I'm sure that wasn't what they intended to do.
So I've just three things to say (and I did not write this to start an argument in the comments by the way) :

Martha Jones is my favorite companion.
I love Ten/Martha.
Deal with it or piss off !

*feels better*
