Faramir was emotionally and psychologically abused by Denethor his whole life, and Boromir was abused through Golden Child Syndrome. There isn’t a child abuse category, so I’ll put this here just in case.

Faramir is frequently emotionally abused by his father, Denethor. Denethor even goes so far as to say that he wishes Faramir had died in place of his other son.

I mean, the Ring in itself causes a psychological addiction. Gollum for example is obviously suffering from this.

An adult child dies. We do not know him but we see his father’s grief and he comments “No parent should have to see their child die”. (Given that no one else has commented on this it is possible it is only shown in the extended version as this is the only version I have seen.)

It's cheating to extract information through torture. It's cheating to make a little person trek across Middle Earth when you've got eagles that can transport people. It's cheating for a bad guy to trap a good guy into a position where he learns the truth too late and he has to fight his way out. Use of the ring to go invisible could be considered cheating, especially at the beginning when it wasn't for self-defense.

The only people of color in the films are South Asian villains who ride elephants. The Uruk-Hai are dark-skinned monsters with tribal markings. Dwarves and Hobbits are based on classical fantasy archetypes rather than little people but there are little people (notably Peter Dinklage) who feel stereotyped by the archetype.

Gandalf has a particular hate for Merry being prone to mistakes, and Gandalf is supposed to be a very good character otherwise which causes role model issues. He keeps wishing Merry was dead. In the next movie Gollum will express his deep hate for hobbits. A human, who ends up being a good guy, doesn't respect Gollum's PTSD in that movie either. There is talk of racial/species extermination and oppression that comes up throughout the movie (it might be this one or movie 2 where hobbits are enslaved)--this one is promoted by the bad guys.

Tectically yes because Arwen, an immortal elf is a few thousand years old, while Aragorn, a human is only about 90. That doesn‘t really matter though because they are a very healthy couple and both are very mature.
Eowyn may be a little younger than Aragorn, but her love for him is noch reciprocated

If you just want to know about movie one instead of the other commentator's spoiler for the whole series, this movie is still bittersweet. A couple good main characters have died. However Frodo is willing to have Sam accompany him after trying to run away from him. There are a lot of good quotes that give you hope.

There are intense stabbings and arrow shots in uncomfortable places. They tend to be pretty rapid fire in battle scenes throughout the movies, but some are not the blink and miss it types.
