It is longer in the movies but there are also lots of things in the books that are not in the movie. It makes sense to increase the battle scenes for a movie.

And the romantic plots were in the book as well.

Are you sure you are not mixing up Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit?

Yes, I'm referring to the overtime Aragorn serves as well as the battle mentioned. Proportion is important.
