It's my second favorite SW film, although when I watch it there are some things I like better about this one than ROTS. It's a really cheesy film, yes, but in my opinion that's what makes it fun to watch. I don't see what's wrong with the lightsaber fights in AOTC. It was more traditional to the OT than any of the other Prequel fights with the pacing. The scenes on Geonosis, Clones Vs, Droids...yes it's a CGI fest, but it's a beautiful CGI fest and I just can't help but like it.
when it comes to Star Wars SMX my friend, we think alike 😎
I could go on forever why I give this film 2/10 but the question is what is good about it?
The Slave 1 versus Kenobi space duel was cool
The lightsaber duel with Yoda versus Count Dooku is the reason I bought the DVD
The ending scene with Sidious and Tyranus - that was magic!
Apart from that I can't think of anything else

Two little scenes at the beginning:
Obi and Ani in the club, where Ewan gets a few nice lines/moments.
Ani and Palps together for the first time, where Palps tells him to trust his feelings and he will be invincible, and that he sees him as more powerfull than Yoda.
I also enjoyed all the stuff back on Tattooine:
*Ani seeing Watto again, especially the animation/performance when Watto realizes its Anakin.
*Seeing the homestead, and young Owen and Beru, and seeing Anakin standing against the homestead at sundown was really cool, with the beginning part of the "Force Theme" playing as he rides off.
*Of course, the death of his mother, and his reactions to her in that scene, and his deadly outburst of anger after.
*The scene in the garage where he tells Padme that he killed them all "Not just the men, but the women" (He starts to break up) "and the children too" as the darkside chorus (Oh ohoh...) is playing in the backround.
Then its just the scenes that you mentioned (including the Jango v.s. Obi fistfight in there), plus the arena scenes after the Jedi arrive, Mace decapatating Jango Fett, and the Battle of Geonosis is cool.
Also, rarely mentioned, but the brief wedding scene is very well done.
As I watched them make those vows for the first time, (in theaters) and saw the pure, tender love that should have never been, and the blaring trumpets fortelling that things were about to get much crazier, I was left in my theater seat wanting 2005 right NOW.
It doesn't have quite the same impact now, but its still a great little scene.
Actually, only the planet Kamino was nice and the arena monsters were interesting. The clone concept sucked, Geonosis sucked as a planet. The not finished fight against Dooku was mildly entertaining.
Seeing Coruscant at night was boring, the return to Tatooine for the fourth time was boring and seeing Naboo again was boring. There, I've said it. All these negative points I adressed are outclassed by scenes from the other movies.
This is what makes AotC inferior to the others.
K, people put down the prequal trilogy just cause there so in love with the OT, thinking, oh man, nothing can beat the OT.
Whatever...
I OT had its corney lines and stupid stuff in it.
in ANH, -Darth Vader looking down on his daughter and not knowing or feeling shit....
-Blood coming out of a severed arm with a lightbaber.
-Corney looking models of the death star where Luke seems to be making damage with his little x wing blasters.
-In ESB, Space creatures on an asteroid living in no atmosphere with temperature or pressure.
-In ROTJ, Primitive Ewoks can take the best Emperors troops in the galaxy.
The PT wasn;t perfect, but I really enjoyed them..
