I think he would be pleased with Sam's character, and how well he was played. Tolkien would have loved the battle scenes, there were no films back then with that kind of action. (excluding Ben-Hur...)
Remember, it is not that Tolkien did not want the movies to be made, but that he did not think it could be done.
