Ender's Game (2013) - Review

Ender's Game Poster

IMDb Rating: 7.1/10

My rating: 7.5/10

The producers did their best to mash a 700 page novel into a 120 minutes movie, but after watching this movie I realized a lot of details have been missed out after checking reviews from people who have read the Novel, for example the movie fast forwards the relationship between Ender's family, especially his turbulent relation with his brother Peter and delicate relationship with his sister Valentine. The movie speeds away to the protagonist getting sent to Battle school before 15 mins. There are times when the movie doesn't make sense at all, especially the scene when Ender insults Bernand and everyone moves to his lunch table. Doesn't make sense at all. Honestly I didn't understand what was going throughout the film since they missed out a lot of details, In my opinion the producers should have focused on his family for the first hour and then have him sent to battle school and feature Ender going into battle in the next movie. Overall the movie wasn't so bad. If you're into sci-fi movies like Stars wars or a fan of Harrison Ford, you should consider watching this movie.
