The acting wasn't as bad as many people think. It might seem poor because of the crappy dialog in the script. I think the acting in all of the Star Wars movies (except for maybe Return of the Jedi) was good. Sir Alex Guiness, Harrison, Ford, Carrie Fischer, McGreggor, Liam Niesen, Portman, and even Mark Hammil: All of these are quality actors and did a good if not great job. The only actor who I don't really like is Samuel L. Jackson. He exaggerates every statement and gesture in pratically every movie he's in. I don't think he was all that bad in AOTC, but in Phantom he was AWFUL. The guy who played Anakin I'm not sure of. The love scenes must have been an awful experience for him as an actor. Anyone in their right mind (except for Lucas who unfortunately has the final say) cringed in disgust as they were listening and watching that crap. But again a lot of what is percieved as poor acting is due to poorly written dialog.
