I just got back, and here are my findings:
1. It is true that the scenes with Padme and Anakin are kinda weak, but they are all pretty short. The last scene with Padme and Anakin was an exception, I thought that scene was very good.
2. The action is non-stop and very good. Particularly cool master Yoda is, and the Emperor is no slouch either.
3. Hayden Christensen was an excellent Darth Vader, but Ewan McGreggor stole the show. He definately had the best performance.
4. The lightsaber duels are all pretty intense, and there are several of them.
5. The entire series was tied up perfectly in the end.
6. Jar Jar Binks is only in two shots and has 0 lines. The cuddliest creatures in this movie are wookies.
7. The scenes where Darth Vader gets his suit aren't anywhere near as bad as what I had been led to believe before hand. I don't think it deserved a PG-13.
Empire Strikes Back is still my favorite, but this one was pretty close.
