I have read the books three times, and didn't miss any of what wasn't in the movie. Some of what you missed would have made it less accessible, and some of it would have lenthened it unecessarily.
I think that, within the constraints of a mass-market media like movies, they did an excellent job of capturing the essence of the story. I'm looking forward to seeing how they show the Ents attack on Isengard.
