I would say he seemed the same. Some argue that he was more "humanized" in the movies, and this does seem true in such parts as the tear in Lothlorien, opposed to the book where he quickly glances and turns away. In both book and movie, he weeps after trying to take the Ring. However, I agree that he seemed the same and was adapted greatly on film by Bean.
I had to comment. But this thread isn't about Boromir, so continue on with the Gimli debate...
By the way, I just have to say, that although the movies fall short from the books, they are definitely masterpieces in their own.
