I think Eowyn was played very well, and I agree that Boromir was also.
However, I simply DETESTED the Arwen parts in both movies!!! Why did they waste precious screentime on HER and her sentimentality, when I'm sure I'm not the only one who was eagerly anticipating the whole Gandalf's usurping Sarumans place part.

And don't get me started with the whole Elven army in Helm's Deep thing.
I'm sure whoever wrote the lines for Legolas was doing him an injustice with the short 'orcs!' 'goblins!' etc. lines. And I was hoping they would make him say
