I love Eva and all of Gainax stuff, I don't think you can hate a series just because of a few episodes, you either like a series or you don't.
I don't think you can say you either like or dislike something. Nothing is that black and white. Especially when it comes to Eva, it's such a mixed bag. First 2/3 of show and last 1/3 have such different feelings. It goes from light- hearted, action drama to dark, brooding horror story.
In terms of atmosphere, those two parts are almost two different shows. While I enjoyed first 2/3 of the series a lot and kinda liked the rest of the series, last two episodes literally put me to sleep, the feat no other animes can claim on me. Sure, those two episodes have a lot of meaning behind, but it was like trying to watch the PowerPoint presentation of a science class report titled "Progress of Instrumentality Project and Its Effect on Human Development: To Be Determined By Mr. Shinji"
