You mean that you haven't read the books.

I had to agree with my friends after we walked out of the movie at 7 PM on the
release day. Even if you hadn't read the books, there were inconsistencies, but
it was a good story, and the CGI is beyond reproach. If you have read the books,
you're in for a sore disappointment. The characters you -thought- you knew have
been butchered. I remember Faramir as a very respectable guy. The Faramir I saw
on screen was just as short-sighted and arrogant as Boromir.
