Still a bit unsure where The Force Awakens lands. It was better than any of the prequels, but how it compares with the original trilogy is a different story.

1. Empire Strikes Back. Still the best in the series, strongest story, best character progression and many of the most memorable scenes.
2.-4. A New Hope, Return of the Jedi, The Force Awakens. Similar in many ways, very strong in most aspects, but each has their own, different weaknesses.
5. Revenge of the Sith. Best of the prequels. Still contains a lot of what made the first two bad, but has much more good in it compared to Phantom and Clones.
6. Attack of the Clones. A few good things, but also contains easily the worst acting and dialogue in the entire series. The only ones who come out ahead in this movie is Palpatine and Obi-Wan, and only because of the talent of the actors in question.
7. Phantom Menace. Just mediocre all around. The soundtrack, the final fight with Darth Maul, and a few nice scenes are the only good things in it. Clones has worse stuff in it, but it also has some better staff, so it just barely comes out better than Phantom.

 

I have to disagree here. It is better quality wise and as a product of course, vut as a Star Wars movie it does not compare. The opening and closing sequence s in Phantom Menace are better than any part of TFA, including the "forced" scene of someone's obvious death. TPM also had better adventure, which TFA failed at.

Matter of preference really. Only Sith is in anyway a decent movie out of the prequels in my opinion. Phantom and Clones have a few nice moments, but that's it. As movies, they just don't hold up for me.
