I didn't think the movie was trying to portray the Romulans as intimidating at all. They were simply the villains of the piece. It was a Romulan movie instead of an episode. Maybe after Insurrection they should have had another ultimate evil enemy like in First Contact but I think they decided to just go with a personal one for Picard instead.
Oh, and Species 8472 SUCKS. They were cool for Scorpion Parts 1 and 2 but In the Flesh retconned them into a group of wimps.
