It's the best of the prequels, and unlike the other two, it actually feels like a Star Wars movie.
It also used a lot of real locations and practical effects so, unlike the next two prequels, it doesn't look completely ridiculous (Although, of course Jar Jar and other things look dumb as hell). The next two are just absolutely atrocious, what the hell was Lucas thinking by shooting it all on green screen?
Still, it has some major problems, isn't a very good film, and set in stone one of the most terrible ret-cons in cinema history (Midichlorians).

The end fight makes it great alone for me. Not a big Star Wars fan though.
Worst of the Star Wars films by far, but not a bad movie. I respect George Lucas for not giving a fukk and making what he wanted to make. Jar Jar still mostly sucks, and Jake Lloyd cant act, but other than that I still think its fun. Liam Neeson kills it, Pod Race, and 3 way lightsaber duel

I ran in here just to post this. Yes, it was that bad. As a matter of fact, watch all of Plinketts reviews for Episodes 1-3. They are long winded but they are entertaining and most importantly, they are true.
jar jar never bothered me 
I always thought he was stupidly funny. Darth Maul is awesome.

He’s good
I never really had a problem with the Star Wars prequels to be honest. They're okay for the most part
Darth Maul though

Episode 1 was ehh. The kid sucked, Jar Jar sucked. Liam Neeson and Ewan Mcgregor did a good job, Natalie Portman was passable and the effects were on point.
Episode 2 was trash because of the wooden dialogue, which led to wooden and uninspired performances. The script was weak as well with Anakin, who is supposed to be one of the strongest Force users ever, running around crying like a bytch and simping to embarrassing levels
Episode 3 was the best of the prequels. The light saber duel between Anakin and Obi Won was
