There was not enough of him. Not enough by half. But what there was of him was brilliant. Especially the scene where Pippin swears fealty. His smile is so comforting. The Faramir scenes were not enough, and too blunt. His death was much more intriguing than in the book. Wasn't too sure about Gandalf's involvement, with all the poking and stoking. Bit weird, but very good. Especially the part where Gandalf bonked him on the head with his staff. Although it was verging on the ridiculous, it was rather more dignified than I had read in previous reviews.John Noble gets full marks and more. And a cookie for being such a good egg.
