I watched all three and didn't mind the way they were done. I actually thought not enough time was devoted to the second movie when they were in the forest, as was the time they spent as prisoners in the elven jail. I enjoyed Evangeline Lilly's character and thought it was less jarring than shoehorning Legolas into the movie. I liked the final battle as well, but I think they should have focused more on Bilbo during the battle with it used as a backdrop for him. And while I understand why the black arrow was turned into a ballista bolt, I would rather they have used the magic arrow like the one in the book.
