I liked Arwen in the movie as well as in the books...the romance was pretty necessary; it softened up the movie a bit so it didn't look like just an action movie, plus it made Rivendell look like a really pretty place. I think Liv Tyler did a good job too, and that Arwen's role expansion was necessary...it added to the movie, and introduced Arwen as Aragorn's lover, so that her marriage to him in the third film would make more sense to the audience.
