Writing this review feels a little redundant as this episode basically repeats the same strengths and weaknesses as the first part "rise of the cyber men." Except this episode we are treated to a bit more action. Some of it decent but some rather campy, which, again, is the episode's major flaw along with the cardboard cutout villain, Mr. Lomac.
On the positive side, the rest of the acting was quite good. I especially enjoyed Noel Clarke's performance as both Mickey and Rickey. And the other characters were also well acted and rounded out. Again the interaction between Rose and her father (albeit technically not her father - - alternate universe, remember?) was excellent. Many good character moments and of course entertaining and witty lines from the Doctor.
The conclusion, while mildly far-fetched and a bit campy, was still rousing and satisfying to watch. Overall, one of the stronger entries for the season. 8/10
