Anakin: Obi Wan I'm not leaving without you you're my BFF! No! I shouldn't kill Dooku he's unarmed!
Anakin: Padme, I love you and we can raise the baby without deceptions or anything I'm tired of it.
Palpatine: Jedi are just like sith.
Anakin: Palpatine, that's not true! Jedi are protectors of the peace! Sith are evil!
Palpatine: this sith dude could prevent others from dying!
Anakin: really...
Palpatine: I'm a sith lord! Join me and you'll save Padme!
Anakin: Gasp! You're evil! I wanna kill you! I'll report you to the council immediately!
Anakin: Don't kill Sidious! I need him! *cuts off Mace's hand*
Anakin: OK I'll be evil now
Sidious: Good. Now you're Vader. Go slaughter younglings.
Vader: Of course. *ruthlessly slaughters jedi*
Vader: I hate you Obi Wan even though I saved your life many times and you were the closest thing that I ever had to a father and I risked my life to save you only a few days ago!
Get it? He's good, and then turns evil FAR too quickly and without much reason. Anakin should be smarter than to listen to a sith.

Yeah, the prequels screwed the pooch on more than a few points. Anakins descent to the dark side being one of them. Funny Star Wars PSA here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tpW_I8-jt8
Re: Anakin's turn to the dark side a little rushed?
I think its very clear in the movies, that he only did it to save Padme, of course he doesn't believe Sidious, he only does those stuff because he thinks he needs Sidious.
The scene on Mustafar, when he kills the Separatist council and then watches the lava and a single tear comes from his eye, you can see, that he knows what he has become, what he has done, but he was willing to pay any price to save Padme.

I really like Star Wars, and I find all of the films to be really enjoyable. This is just asking why Anakin is good and then turns bad within the next few minutes.

Not to be rude or anything, but why are you the mod for a set of movies that you don't seem to like?

I think after cutting off Mace Windu's arm and basically causing him to plummet to his death sealed the deal on him not wanting to be associated with the Jedi. That, and he felt Palpatine had the key to save Padme's life.
So because I like SW I cannot be disappointed about extremely bad elements. There are quite a number of good things about the PT, but the thing that I can't seem to get over is that Lucas had no limitations at all making the PT. And yet, he fails to make it a very good trilogy. The PT is all about Anakin's fall... he spends about seven hours telling that story... he makes one completely obsolete film (AOTC) and rushes the turn to the Dark Side in such a way that it loses all credibility. And this from the filmmaker that always used to say the effects were just tools in telling a story. And when he has unlimited power to make the PT, he fails at telling the story properly and submerges in a load of special effects. That's irony and a painful irony for a fan like me.
