They were definitely pretty much universally hated by anybody past puberty when they came out. Some of that has mellowed over the past 20 years (rose-tinted glasses & all), but the backlash against them was massive. I think it's fair to say that there is a pretty hard line in how popular the prequels are based on how old the person was when they first came out (obviously, there are always exceptions).

That being said, they all at least do have some really cool individual moments in them.

i have rewatched them a few times since they came out.

i do think the are a little worse than the originals and they are by far not my favorite movies ever, but they are decently coherent, and they fleshed out the lore of star wars quite a bit.

these movies are what got me into star wars the way i am into FNAF or similar franchises now.

i have to respect them for that.

plus they have awesome VFX.
