I'd say that the movie overall was great, but in a couple of spots it disappointed me (& I'm not going to count lack of Saruman, scouring, Frodo telling Sam to go, stuff like that):

*All of the battles. The battle at Pelennor wasn't anything great, & the battle at the Black Gate was much, much worse.

*Theoden's death. It would've been pretty cool to have him be fighting or something, & then all of a sudden have the winged beast scoop him & dash him against the ground, but Theoden seeing what was about to happen/his anguished face ruined it for me.

Plenty of other stuff I could add, but I've already talked about those on other related threads...
