I really liked the episode and thought it to be a good ending. Desmond pulling the plug and making Flocke mortal being mirrored at the vending machine by Sawyer and Juliette was some pretty nifty writing.
The ALT was obviously purgatory for all religions (note the stained glass window at the Church) - even those that don't believe in purgatory. The island really does represent hell in some ways - there was even a little devil looking thing on the roof when Dez pulled the plug.
Walking through hell, making choices about right and wrong, battles between good and evil - the show represents us - everyman - as we fight our own wars.
Michael lost his soul. Sayid found his (and Shannon). I think that can tell us more about ourselves than anything else. We can do some pretty awful things, but in the end we can overcome them if we so choose....or not.
Juliette and Sawyer's awakening was wonderful...the exchange between Locke and Ben at the church was really intriguing, and Kate is some yummy eye candy.
What's not to like?
