I disliked the "let's see if that mighty troll kills Aragorn before Frodo destroys the ring" scene but the overall impression of the battle was great!
Actually I've got to admit that I didn't even notice this the first time I went to see the movie. For me, switching between the Battle at the Gate & Frodo/Sam/Gollum didn't work very well & left me with half a mind on the battle. It seemed to work ok other than that, though. I would've liked to see some of the orcs or men escape the 'creeping pit', only to be killed by Aragorn's men of course, just so it didn't seem quite so cheesy..ish.
