I actually do agree that he was a bit of a wimp. Compared to the books, anyway. He was one of my favorite characters in the books because he was so noble and brave, etc. This made him look like he wanted to hide. And the whole, "Is this it? Is this the best you can give me Saruman?" bit drove me insane. He would never be that blindly arrogant, would he? Oh well. It wasn't really the actor's fault. Maybe the fact that Rohan was a nation that looked like it was made up of about 500 peasants had something to do with his weakness. I'm looking forward to his death scene, though. Maybe he can redeem himself.
