He was not happy in the least, particularly since he was very much an ardent follower of Tolkien's work for many decades prior to the making of the movie. He tried to be polite about it in interviews, but his disgust was evident. David Wenham, who played Faramir, was equally dismayed at the treatment his character received in the movies, but I don't believe he actually read the books until after the fact. Had he done so he most likely would've been apppalled.
