Agreed. The movie could have depicted the typical Gondorian man-at-arms to be a skillful swordsman dispatching many foes with fluid yet powerful hacks, slashes and thrusts before being overwhelmed by superior numbers of the enemies - have them all end up as pin cushions before being cut down by orcish marauders.

Well not that good, cause remember, Boromir was suppose to be the best of them all, and if in the movies he was shot down by only three arrows, then Gondorians shouldn't be able to stand three arrows...

Boromir was unarmoured?

Its more skill then weaponary...

I have no idea what you meant by that. If you're saying the movie Boromir was an inept fighter, that itself is debatable.
