Well I just saw it, and defiantely was light years ahead of episode I. There were a couple scenes where the acting made me cringe (annakin's mother's death scene was the worst since mary corleone at the end of Godfather III) but you really don't go to star wars flicks for the acting.
Yoda was fucking bad ass, and sam jackson decapitating jango fett was fucking awesome. Ewan McGregor kicked ass, was the only bright spot as far as real acting goes, and the movie made me relatively excited for episode III, which now has the potential, if done right, to be really great. It has to pay off all these loose ends in ways that don't suck thats all.
overall, now if i had to rank them, it would look like this:
Empire, New Hope, Clones, Jedi, Phantom Menace
