The OT is more like a swash-buckling Flash Gordon-esque series while the prequels are more political and Shakespearian (especially with the unrealistic, theatrical dialogue that critics hated).
The dialogue is exactly why I didn't like the new movies. It didn't seem natural and felt like it was forced upon the characters. I would have appreciated the new movies more if the story portions were actually well-acted. The only good performances, in my opinion, not-coincidentally happen to be the only two characters I really liked: Obi Wan and Quai Gon. Of course, the original trilogy wasn't all that well-acted, but it was more action throughout the entire film than large chunks of action like the new movies.
