In preparation for the next attack, the highly esteemed Colonel Hyrum Graff and the International Military are training only the best young minds to find the future Mazer. Ender Wiggin, a shy but strategically brilliant young leader, is recruited to join the elite. Arriving at Battle School, Ender quickly and easily masters increasingly difficult challenges and simulations, distinguishing himself and winning respect amongst his peers. Ender is soon ordained by Graffthe military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham himself to lead his fellow soldiers into an epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and save the human race.
Ender is a slight fragile teenager with the expanding mind of a genius. His brother, the brute jock, is violent and only sees through strength and brutality. His sister the kind and compassionate one sees only through an affected sense of contact. Ender is a third child in a population overloaded world that is reeling from the previous war with the alien race of insectivorous beings who work and behave like the ants nest, the Formics. Having been brought in to being by loving parents who gained permission for his birth, Ender feels he is not only unwanted but excess baggage to the world. However, his mind is his strength. He is gifted with the ability to become his aggressor and think like his aggressor thus giving him the key to the aggressorhe learns to love them through their frailty - using this to exploit them and thus destroy them. This ability is seen by those old men solidified in their ways, who have no flexibility in their thinking anymore, and exploit Ender to achieve their own ends. But at what cost, and to whom?
I give this movie a generous 5 out of 10. To no extent should this movie ever be considered great or even good. As someone who is a fan of Scott- Cards writing, especially Enders Game, I expected nothing less than exceptional acting, and promising story conviction. The movie lacked in pretty much every aspect. The special-effects were less than impressive; seeing it was a science-fiction based novel/movie, I assumed they would bring out great(ER) effects, if not that, amazing cinematography, which they did not. <br/><br/>The movie failed not only visually, but on a simplistic matter of story line. First off, there was no character development what so ever and the dialog was less than stimulating. Noting that I've read the book, I knew they would trail off a bit, but I didn't suspect that they would completely rewrite the story. Not only did they portray each character wrong, or add characters in when they weren't supposed to be there (BEAN) but they also left out the complex line of events from Valentine and Peter- whom in the end of the movie should have played a BIG role. As welltaking out significant parts in Enders life (deaths, fights, conversations)so the rating would be low enough for younger children to see. Personally, I think changing anything to get a different audience to watch is wrong, specifically when it's a film adaptation. <br/><br/>Needless to say, I was less than impressed with the adaptation of one of the best science-fiction books I've ever read anda student studying film and the history of film, I was let down by this sorry-excuse of a movie. It was more of a tragedy. <br/><br/>In all, I give it a 5, only because I could recognize the effort that went into the film, but they didn't execute it in a way where I was expecting. So, if you don't mind sitting around watching a beautiful book get torn to shreds for 2 hours, please be my guest in watching this film.
This is one of the most hyped and biggest let downs of the modern age.<br/><br/>The hype for this film made it one to look out for, and I looked forward to its release.<br/><br/>However, upon viewing I cannot tell you enough how bad it is.<br/><br/>Im no fan boy of the original books and had never heard of the volumes in question and I have to say I wont be reading the books anytime soon.<br/><br/>Starting off with the "acting" skills of the leads in this film…I have a carpenter friend with less wooden materials in his work shop. Asa Butterfield is principlethe mighty oak, with no depth in character and no warmth at allthe lead. Ben Kingsley (Pine) has in one film ruined his career. Harrison Ford (Douglas fir) is obviously after one more paycheck at the expense of any artistic integrity… I guess you can see how much I think the casting sucks.<br/><br/>I read elsewhere that this is just Harry Potter in space and I inclined to agree with that statement. If your over 30 and have half a brain cell, you'll not like this one bit. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. <br/><br/>This shows one of the great IMDb mysteries of how such an awful film has a 7.2 average.
This starfighter-recruit blockbuster is refreshingly idea-driven.
The film storyline may turn out to be a fusion between 'Ender's Game' and its parallel novel 'Ender's Shadow', focusing on the important elements of both. Technically speaking, both books take place at exactly the same time, and they both focus on the same events at the Battle School, but from the points of view of two different characters.
