I liked the basic story of the films and some of the action scenes were enjoyable.  My biggest beef is simply that 1 and 2 are just really kinda boring.  It's easy to point fingers at obvious annoyances like Jar Jar, Anakin, and space taxes, but really those are all just minor nitpicks compared to the real problem that they just simply weren't very fun to watch.  I can watch a movie with an annoying character or bad actor and still enjoy the movie otherwise.

Revenge of the Sith on the other hand I actually do consider to be a good movie and I like that the film is able to stand on it's own mostly from 1 and 2 so I can sometimes just watch the OT+ROTS.  

I look at the Prequels kind of the same way I look at the Silmarillion.  They both contain some interesting backstory information which expands the main body of work but fails to entertain to the same degree.
